[12:10] <nitehawk> how can i install LAMP ?
[12:10] <bobbob1016> Is swiftweasel enough of a speed upgrade from swiftfox, to switch?  I'm running 32bit on a 32bit Pentium 4
[12:10] <xiao_haozi> raymondjtoth: sure...its straightforward....also has some fun other things you can install via gui program....enjoY!

[12:12] <CoF> crimsun: http://pastebin.ca/557231
[12:12] <Guilty_as_Sin> I missed it
[12:12] <aroo> omegacenti: grats
[12:12] <webactivex> ikonia: reason?
[12:12] <jadder> because I need to execute an edictor in my shell with a 1 less priority, I dont understand exacly but I suppose, I can run an edictor with nice -19 cat > jadder.txt
[12:12] <omegacenti> aroo: thanks :)
[12:13] <raymondjtoth> and i amnd frank will use it inconjution with other atuff my mom will use this also
[12:13] <xiao_haozi> raymond: are you suing ubuntu or kubuntu
[12:13] <bobbob1016> phixnay, you want to go to the ubuntu+1 channel
[12:13] <raymondjtoth> ubuntu
[12:13] <ikonia> webactivex: its not meant to work that way
[12:13] <omegacenti> kitche: any way to find out exactly what is plugged into my computer... devices connected via ide, pci, usb, yadda, yadda...
[12:13] <raymondjtoth> xi thats to you] 
[12:13] <CoF> crimsun: the hardware data is accurate
[12:13] <xiao_haozi> raymond: ok then go to your menu it should be under the gnome menu now
[12:13] <geocritter> does anybody know why an update to feisty would have hosed a partition (and messed up the mbr as well?)
[12:13] <rancidlm> hey all, i have a laptop that i can connect to the internet wirelessly i would like to connect my PDA to the internet using my laptop's wifi.. in linux is there a way to create adhoc type session to share internet to a wireless device?
[12:13] <webactivex> ikonia: but will it work that way? I just want to store a cvs repo
[12:13] <phixnay> bobbob1016: I'm already there :)
[12:13] <phixnay>  The reason I ask in here is because I want to know what I should do in feisty before I try installing gutsy
[12:13] <raymondjtoth> ] xi i see applixaation and places ns system
[12:13] <raymondjtoth> at top
[12:14] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, synaptic is controlled by root user with password if she does not have password she cant install anything
[12:14] <raymondjtoth> ok frank
[12:14] <ikonia> webactivex: not good putting cvs on ftp
[12:14] <xiao_haozi> raymond: under applications

[12:15] <webactivex> *sigh* how do I go about manually mounting a samba drive..
[12:15] <xiao_haozi> raymond: you can also do in terminal.... type ... automatix (and then hit tab and it should complete to automatix2)
[12:15] <geocritter> rencidlm: yes; it messed up the partition information on my /home (dev/sda4) tho...fsck wouldn't even touch it
[12:15] <frank|\> xiao_haozi,  lol same here cant remember ubuntu interface
[12:15] <ikonia> webactivex:  man mount
[12:15] <xiao_haozi> raymond: then enter and it will open it
[12:15] <Guilty_as_Sin> system/preferences/hardware info..  right?
[12:15] <omegacenti> preaction: Sorry, I asked again to address the entire channel. My apologies if this is considered out of patience.
[12:15] <xiao_haozi> frank: yeah im not too much a gui guy

[12:15] <raymondjtoth> xi were i finde the w32codecs
[12:16] <eyemean> k im off to eat,hmmmmmmm
[12:16] <raymondjtoth> i have iut open xi
[12:16] <eyemean> take care every1 thanx for all the help i have received
[12:16] <xiao_haozi> raymond: chooose the codecs option...the one for multimedia
[12:16] <xiao_haozi> raymond: that will put in libdvdcss for dvd viewing and win32 and mp3 stuff
[12:16] <nitehawk> is it possible to install lamp after you have installed ubuntu server ?
[12:16] <xiao_haozi> you can scroll around in there and choose all the things you like
[12:16] <rancidlm> geocritter: do know what type of update you performed and what type of partition it was ext3, ..etc?
[12:16] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, if u open up that link i gave u it will teach u hoe to use media players and more
[12:16] <xiao_haozi> raymond: there are some cool programs in there
[12:17] <hatredx> ugh, where do I tell sendmail to listen to all interfaces?
[12:17] <raymondjtoth> frank will do i want easy untill i learn more
[12:17] <xiao_haozi> frank|\: yeah good link... taht is another way to go....
[12:17] <raymondjtoth> and read more
[12:17] <raymondjtoth> fpr now
[12:17] <raymondjtoth> for npw
[12:17] <raymondjtoth> now
[12:17] <geocritter> rencidlm: it was ext3.  I don't know which files did the job, since I was letting auto update do it's thing
[12:17] <geocritter> rancidlm: it messed up the drive geometry for that partition, was the end result, tho
[12:18] <frank|\> xiao_haozi, automatrix is junk lol synaptic Kpackage or adapt we should recommend to ray
[12:18] <ROnewbie> 30$ TO ANYONE that helps me fix the following wi-fi problem (4 weeks old, end of my wits): Network Manager sees all my wireless network, but doesn't connect to any, encrypted or not. Running Feisty on an MSI S271X laptop, with an RT61 network card.
[12:18] <JC_Denton_> is it true ubuntu will only hibernate to a swap partition and not a swap file?
[12:18] <raymondjtoth> xi is media one the w32codecs
[12:18] <xiao_haozi> raymondjtoth: once you have them installed then through automatix, they will be recognized by your media players... you can use things like vlc to play them then
[12:18] <raymondjtoth> xi i have it
[12:18] <crimsun> CoF: are you using any model= line in /etc/modprobe.d/* ?
[12:18] <xiao_haozi> raymond: yeah
[12:19] <raymondjtoth> xi dose lunix get virus at all
[12:19] <xiao_haozi> frank|\: yeah i agree  but i think its pretty nice for new users because it generally works well.... package management method can be tricky for new users imho.... buy yeah
[12:19] <raymondjtoth> or spyware like windopws dose
[12:19] <rancidlm> geocritter: hmm i have no clue then, srry... i have never seen a simple ubuntu update cause that type of issue
[12:19] <xiao_haozi> raymondjtoth: generally no...but good user practice is important still.... you can still get a rootkit or malicious code
[12:20] <idefixx> jadder: u should read 'man nice' one less could mean 'nice -1..' or 'nice --1'. if the program is supposed to get lower prio use the first if you want lower use the last.
[12:20] <frank|\> xiao_haozi, new user yes maybe but when i was new i found synaptic easy lol
[12:20] <kslc> crimsun: would you like to keep troubleshooting my problem from yesterday?
[12:20] <CoF> crimsun: how do I find that? There's nothing written like that in alsa-base
[12:20] <gamecheif> wine is installed where do i go to get it
[12:21] <jadder> ok, also how I change priority to a program how is runing
[12:21] <idefixx> jadder: oops.. last lower == higher
[12:21] <xiao_haozi> frank|\: agreed me too... i use aptitude for everything.... but everyone has a different background when coming to linux so i think that is what makes automatix nice for some.   but yeah i don't like to use gui package managers....slow slow slow
[12:21] <idefixx> jadder: 'man renice'
[12:22] <jadder> yes renice
[12:22] <jadder> you are great
[12:22] <crimsun> kslc: I already gave you an additional pointer :)
[12:22] <raymondjtoth> xi ok i have it now how do i get quick time going
[12:22] <crimsun> kslc: (the intent is to see if your DSDT is bugged)
[12:22] <raymondjtoth> since got it installed
[12:22] <aroo> gamecheif: you should have just stayed with windows
[12:22] <lnx^> Guilt_as_Sin: i have got lots of VIDEO_TS.VOB & .IFO files, which i suppose should represent a DVD disk, on my harddisk. how can i burn them so that a normal DVD player can read them?
[12:22] <frank|\> xiao_haozi, what until ray plays around with KDE how much fun he will have
[12:22] <geocritter> rancid: thanks anyway...I've never had that happen either, with any distro
[12:22] <raymondjtoth> do i need to reboot
[12:22] <kslc> restart with acpi=off?
[12:22] <aroo> gamecheif: you installed ubuntu just to play and use windows apps? doesn't make sense
[12:22] <crimsun> kslc: yes
[12:22] <raymondjtoth> frank i will in do timem
[12:23] <crimsun> kslc: again, make sure the machine is on AC power
[12:23] <frank|\> lol KDE RULES ALL
[12:23] <raymondjtoth> frank what is kde
[12:23] <xiao_haozi> raymond: well avi should be ready to roll...now you can use synaptic (the add/remove programs) to get vlc or another media player from franks link and it should play your .avi files now
[12:23] <raymondjtoth> ?
[12:23] <kslc> hm do I just add acpi=off to the kernel line in grub's menu file for that?
[12:23] <aroo> frank|\: matter of preference
[12:23] <raymondjtoth> xi i have vlc
[12:23] <crimsun> CoF: grep -nHr model= /etc/modprobe.d/*
[12:23] <xiao_haozi> frank|\: agreed.... i personally like kde...but gnome has some nice things too
[12:23] <raymondjtoth> and one frank gave me
[12:23] <kslc> I'm not very experienced with grub.
[12:23] <frank|\> kubuntu desktop environment
[12:23] <aroo> frank|\: that isn't what kde stands for
[12:23] <raymondjtoth> frank is it good
[12:23] <xiao_haozi> frank, yes agreed
[12:24] <xiao_haozi> i like kde
[12:24] <raymondjtoth> zi now what i do since i got vlc and omne frank gave me
[12:24] <xiao_haozi> but yeah that isn't what kde is
[12:24] <CoF> crimsun: /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base~:39:options snd-hda-intel model=3stack-660
[12:24] <raymondjtoth> what is kde
[12:24] <raymondjtoth> im confused
[12:24] <CoF> crimsun: that should be correct
[12:24] <xiao_haozi> raymond: you should be able to fire up vlc and open yhour .avi files

[12:25] <frank|\> konqueror
[12:25] <frank|\> oops
[12:25] <bobbob1016> Is swiftweasel enough of a speed upgrade from swiftfox, to switch?  I'm running 32bit on a 32bit Pentium 4
[12:25] <CoF> crimsun: I edited it
[12:25] <raymondjtoth> !kde frank
[12:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kde frank - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:25] <CoF> crimsun: I removed it cuz it didn't help, but I haven't restarted yet
[12:25] <xiao_haozi> raymond: don't worry...you are using ubuntu which uses gnome....kubuntu which frank and i were using is kde...just a different window manager in essence....don't worry aobut it...it can get confusing
[12:25] <idefixx> bobbob1016: imo, no.
[12:25] <linuxnub> !kde | frank
[12:25] <Guilty_as_Sin> kde apps are great..  but I still prefer my gnome
[12:25] <ubotu> frank: KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu:  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop , or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE) . Latest KDE version is 3.5.7 for Feisty, 3.5.6 for Edgy, and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org) for more information.
[12:25] <crimsun> CoF: why are you running 1.0.14rc4 instead of 1.0.14, BTW?
[12:26] <raymondjtoth> zi how i use quick time on web site
[12:26] <frank|\> yup konqueror KDE
[12:26] <CoF> crimsun: it's the latest I could get off the website
[12:26] <raymondjtoth> like if streqaming in quick time for mate
[12:26] <crimsun> CoF: no, 1.0.14 is the latest.
[12:26] <raymondjtoth> and zi how i get 3d going and open gl
[12:26] <raymondjtoth> im on  a dell lapy
[12:26] <CoF> crimsun: ugh, well, I don't think that's the issue in any case
[12:26] <bobbob1016> idefixx, ok, I wasn't sure, I was searching the forums for a way to kill swiftfox's process, after it crashed and I saw swiftweasel, wasn't sure if it was worth it
[12:26] <frank|\> yea ray i tried .MOV Qt damn thing didnt work
[12:26] <nitehawk> is there anyway i can install LAMP after i have installed ubuntu ?
[12:26] <raymondjtoth> xi its .mov at end
[12:26] <linuxnub> !LAMP
[12:26] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[12:26] <ikonia> nitehawk: yes, just install apache/php/mysql through synaptic
[12:27] <xiao_haozi> raymond: it would depend on your video card chipset...but let me look here a second....  i have a link
[12:27] <sgrove_> is it better to network two ubuntu machines via nfs or smb?
[12:27] <raymondjtoth> !lamp user frank
[12:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lamp user frank - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:27] <idefixx> bobbob1016: its essentially the same... debian '
[12:27] <nitehawk> k
[12:27] <Veinor> ok, my connection is a LOT worse than it was under windows.
[12:27] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, never used sorry
[12:27] <Veinor> wireless connection, I mean.
[12:27] <Sh3r1ff> sgrove_: nfs
[12:27] <idefixx> bobbob1016: 'rebranded' firefox because of licensing issues... thus calling it iceweasle.
[12:28] <ihateusernames> yea my wifi goes out a lot under ubuntu than windows
[12:28] <raymondjtoth> xi how i gewt .move going
[12:28] <Guilty_as_Sin> what kind of wireless config you have set up Veinor?
[12:28] <ihateusernames> venior*
[12:28] <xiao_haozi> raymond: http://ubuntuforums.org/search.php?searchid=21837131   but yeah just like frank i don't mess with that stuff.... its not always that stable and i don't really go for eyecandy ... i always have a bunch of terminals covering everything up anyway
[12:28] <Veinor> Do you mean what kind of card?
[12:28] <linuxnub> !wireless | ihateusernames
[12:28] <ubotu> ihateusernames: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:28] <Lunar_Lamp> Hmm, when logging into my server, one of my users' bash profile doesn't appear to be being read until he does "source .bashrc".  What could be causing this?
[12:28] <Guilty_as_Sin> WEP, WPA or (my neihbors have access)?
[12:28] <frank|\> ubotu, tell raymondjtoth about lamp
[12:28] <Veinor> whichever the least secure of the first to is, I forget which one that is.
[12:28] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: your using gnome terminal which doesnt' open a login shell so doesn't open .bashrc
[12:28] <Veinor> WEP.
[12:29] <bobbob1016> idefixx, ok, thanks, you know the command to kill the swiftfox?  I did kill -l and it didn't show anything mozilla or swift, and when I start swiftfox, it says it's already running
[12:29] <raymondjtoth> is xi still here with mne
[12:29] <xiao_haozi> raymond: in automatix there should be a browser codecs option...
[12:29] <crimsun> CoF: I'm not convinced you don't need changeset 76c4e3625d2a.

[12:29] <geocritter> is anybody running gutsy's 1st release yet?
[12:29] <Veinor> bobbob1016: killall swiftfox
[12:29] <ikonia> raymondjtoth: don't use automatix
[12:29] <Guilty_as_Sin> not me
[12:29] <PriceChild> geocritter, #ubuntu+1
[12:29] <Guilty_as_Sin> just getting use to feisty myself
[12:29] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, right
[12:29] <CoF> crimsun: hmm, ok, ima try the newest version then
[12:29] <Veinor> Guilty_as_Sin: WEP
[12:29] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, is there any way around this?
[12:29] <raymondjtoth> xi i see that
[12:29] <beastlykings> I used RecordMyDesktop to record the africam for 12 hours straight, then it took a couple hours to encode it. But after all of that my 120GiB HDD only has 3.5 or so gigabytes left. what happened? How do I fix?
[12:29] <Lapinux> anyone know why i would have 2 floppy entries in "computer:///" when i only have 1 floppy drive?
[12:29] <Guilty_as_Sin> WEP should run great
[12:29] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: use a login shell
[12:29] <linuxnub> why not? automatix2  works without flaw for me
[12:30] <idefixx> bobbob1016: 'ps xauf | grep fox' take a look at the pid (first number) and 'kill -9 <pid>'
[12:30] <Guilty_as_Sin> must have other issues
[12:30] <raymondjtoth> xi what one i want for .move
[12:30] <geocritter> PriceChild: you are?  How's it working?
[12:30] <Sh3r1ff> !automatix
[12:30] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, I don't really understand.
[12:30] <raymondjtoth> .mov i mean
[12:30] <Veinor> yeah, but it's not
[12:30] <bobbob1016> Veinor, thanks, I thought it had to be listed
[12:30] <JC_Denton_> is it true ubuntu will only hibernate to a swap partition and not a swap file?
[12:30] <Veinor> maybe it's the drivers?
[12:30] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[12:30] <ikonia> Guilty_as_Sin: how do you know wep should run great, you don't know what card he's using, what driver he's using etc
[12:30] <frank|\> hmm
[12:30] <PriceChild> geocritter, /join #ubuntu+1
[12:30] <geocritter> cpy that, thanks
[12:30] <Veinor> bobbob1016: you can always use ps aux | grep swift
[12:30] <Guilty_as_Sin> in my experiences it should..
[12:30] <BK> I used RecordMyDesktop to record the africam for 12 hours straight, then it took a couple hours to encode it. But after all of that my 120GiB HDD only has 3.5 or so gigabytes left. what happened? How do I fix?
[12:30] <bobbob1016> Veinor, it still says "Still running reboot or kill it"
[12:30] <Guilty_as_Sin> but you are correct
[12:30] <raymondjtoth> xi found it
[12:30] <frank|\> ubotu, tell raymontoth about quicktime
[12:30] <Guilty_as_Sin> I don't know till I'm setting there do I?
[12:30] <xiao_haozi> raymond: cool
[12:31] <Guilty_as_Sin> sorry for that blurb
[12:31] <ikonia> Guilty_as_Sin: don't offer fantasy advice

[12:31] <hajhouse> Lapinux: i don't know, but you may be able to find out by looking at the kernel log. run dmesg > logfile.tmp in a terminal and then examine logfile.tmp in an editor. you will see output from the floppy drivers when the floppy drives are detected.
[12:31] <raymondjtoth> why do i all way get bot xi
[12:31] <Guilty_as_Sin> fantasy fag
[12:31] <ikonia> Guilty_as_Sin: that language is uncalled for
[12:31] <PriceChild> Guilty_as_Sin, please don't...
[12:31] <Guilty_as_Sin> yeah yeah..  rudeness is uncalledfor as well
[12:31] <frank|\> ??
[12:32] <icechen1> :)
[12:32] <JC_Denton_> will I be able to hibernate to a swap file?
[12:32] <hajhouse> Guilty_as_Sin: rudeness is definitely called for in the case of bigotry. just drop it.
[12:32] <ikonia> JC_Denton_: how are you creating a seap file
[12:32] <ikonia> Guilty_as_Sin: I wasn't being rude, you where offering advice that was potentially very wrong
[12:32] <linuxnub> !hibernate | JC_Denton_
[12:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hibernate - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:32] <JC_Denton_> ikonia mkswap
[12:32] <Veinor> ikonia: I'm using an Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG
[12:33] <ikonia> JC_Denton_: are you using hibernate2 ?
[12:33] <Guilty_as_Sin> accept my sorrows?
[12:33] <hajhouse> JC_Denton_: you can do that with s2disk
[12:33] <ikonia> Veinor: I'm not familier with that card
[12:33] <Veinor> ikonia: as for drivers... don't quite remember which.
[12:33] <Veinor> ikonia: :-(
[12:33] <JC_Denton_> ikonia I used this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=89782&page=1 . im using hibernate from the gnome shutdown menu
[12:33] <Guilty_as_Sin> still yet..  the only troubles I've found thus far are w/ WPA
[12:33] <Guilty_as_Sin> and they are minimal
[12:33] <ikonia> JC_Denton_: as I understand it there are 2 methods for dropping into hibernate
[12:33] <Veinor> any idea on how to check which driver I'm using?
[12:33] <ikonia> Guilty_as_Sin: thats not relevant unless your using the same card
[12:33] <Guilty_as_Sin> correct
[12:34] <ikonia> JC_Denton_: one can only use swap if its "in use" by the system, so if you swapon the file it should be ok
[12:34] <Tm_T> Veinor: howdy
[12:34] <Guilty_as_Sin> sorry for my thoughtlessness

[12:34] <Guilty_as_Sin> idiot me
[12:34] <CapeTown> how do I save etc/modules.conf as root from gedit since it says I don't have permission to update the file?
[12:34] <ikonia> JC_Denton_: the other I don't know how it works so I don't know if it requires a partition or file
[12:34] <JC_Denton_> ikonia, I did swapon the file
[12:34] <Veinor> CapeTown: you launch it via gksudo instead
[12:34] <CapeTown> okay!
[12:34] <ikonia> JC_Denton_: just need to figure out which hibernate method works in which way
[12:34] <Sh3r1ff> CapeTown: sudo get /etc/modules.conf
[12:34] <Sh3r1ff> gedit
[12:34] <JC_Denton_> ikonia, ok
[12:35] <BK> i created a huge 80Gib file somwhere with RecordMyDesktop, and now I have no disk space left
[12:35] <ikonia> JC_Denton_: I know one will work with a file as it doesn't care - it just wants a swap system thats in use, the other I don't know how it works

[12:35] <ikonia> ihateusernames: its a different alternative
[12:35] <ikonia> JC_Denton_: I think its hibernate2
[12:35] <|_ocke> so does anyone here know anything about configuring alsa
[12:35] <gravemind> does gparted work with ntfs?
[12:35] <rinky3> many versions of linux are faster than many versions of windows
[12:35] <JC_Denton_> ikonia, thanks ill look into it
[12:36] <ikonia> JC_Denton_: but I'm not certain
[12:36] <Sh3r1ff> raf256: why you want an insecure distro???
[12:36] <|_ocke> gravemind, yep
[12:36] <Veinor> ihateusernames: It doesn't necessarily have all of the bloat, but it can be slower.
[12:36] <lockdown2> ihateusernames, linux can be faster than windows but if you run window managers like kde and gnome the hardware requirements are pretty much the same as XP

[12:36] <BK> No really guys, I can't find it. I think its the raw image of my 12 hour record session
[12:36] <gravemind> but for some reason gparted isn't recognizing my windows partition

[12:36] <ihateusernames> idk, but linux is too laggy for me, when I'm playing a song, it skips..

[12:36] <lockdown2> Veinor, for now,  but there are plenty of alternatives that are lightweight and for servers you don't even need to bother with a window manager
[12:36] <xiao_haozi> raymond: yea?

[12:37] <gravemind> gparted sees the ntfs partition, but it doesn't know how much space is used, and it doesn't know the mountpoint, even though its listed in fstab

[12:40] <raymondjtoth> pls
[12:40] <raf256> crimsun: I wonder woul it be a big problem to provide PaX kernel, and build most critical apps (deamons, ssh, web broweser) with pic
[12:41] <zotz> ah,resolvconf was stopping dnsmasq from working for me with how I had things set up
[12:41] <crimsun> raf256: again, please take the discussion to the ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list.
[12:41] <raf256> crimsun: ok
[12:41] <gravemind> can someone help me fix gparted so I can resize my ntfs partiton?
[12:41] <|_ocke> Guilty_as_Sin, probably because it is impossible to pirate linux
[12:41] <XtypeWriter74> !offtopic
[12:41] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:41] <xiao_haozi> raymond: depends... but you can open terminal and type : locate mplayer
[12:41] <raymondjtoth> xi
[12:41] <Guilty_as_Sin> I mean I need my machine to pirate..  don't know about the rest of you..  but sh_t..  I need my torrents to work..
[12:41] <frank|\> raymondjtoth,  for firefox the plugins are in synaptic look them up type Firefox and it will list firefpx plugins
[12:41] <Guilty_as_Sin> sick of core dumping and missing libs
[12:41] <IndyGunFreak> !plugins
[12:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about plugins - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:41] <xiao_haozi> raymond: yeah frank is right.... that is a good way to grab ones you need
[12:41] <Guilty_as_Sin> get's old after a while'
[12:41] <bulio> how do I enable mp3 support in 7.04?
[12:41] <omegacenti> gravemind: is the ntfs mounted?
[12:42] <crimsun> Guilty_as_Sin: maybe you'd better stick w/ a proprietary OS, then.

[12:42] <m1r> where can i find symlink configuration ?
[12:42] <Guilty_as_Sin> lmao
[12:42] <bulio> BK, open
[12:42] <gravemind> omegacenti: yes, but gparted says it can't see the mountpoint (which is /media/windows)
[12:42] <kslc> crimsun: now when I try to login (put my username and password) it doesn't load the desktop.
[12:42] <Guilty_as_Sin> I knew that would ill a few of you up.. but lets be real here
[12:42] <omegacenti> gravemind: are you sure its mounted?
[12:42] <idefixx> Guilty_as_Sin: what are you takling about.. ut and azu work on linux just as fine as on windows... you just dont have to worri about drm. but keep talking.
[12:42] <gravemind> I'm sure
[12:42] <crimsun> figures.  Remove acpi=off, reboot, and pastebin your dmesg, please.
[12:42] <Guilty_as_Sin> why do torrents suck in linux?
[12:42] <crimsun> ^ kslc
[12:43] <|_ocke> anybody help? please? hehe id use the web but i only have like 50% packet loss right now since the leaves grew out
[12:43] <BK> bulio, go to setting and then make sure that everything is checked
[12:43] <omegacenti> Guilty_as_Sin: troll much?
[12:43] <Guilty_as_Sin> no they don't
[12:43] <Guilty_as_Sin> they suck on linux
[12:43] <BK> bulio, check marked
[12:43] <|_ocke> ive ehard that alsa works with modules
[12:43] <gravemind> Guilty_as_Sin: you're torrents aren't working?
[12:43] <Guilty_as_Sin> they abvsolutely suck on linux
[12:43] <crimsun> |_ocke: it is modularised as shipped.
[12:43] <omegacenti> !troll | Guilty_as_Sin
[12:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about troll - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[12:43] <gravemind> Guilty_as_Sin: what program are you using?
[12:43] <idefixx> Guilty_as_Sin: reapt it a bit more... maybe it'll become true.

[12:43] <ikonia> Guilty_as_Sin: works fine
[12:43] <BK> bulio, everything in the first page
[12:43] <frank|\> LOL ubotu
[12:43] <aroo> !language Guilty_as_Sin
[12:43] <crimsun> |_ocke: what's the issue?  onboard via got you down?
[12:43] <kslc> hm is there a way to kill X without it restarting again?
[12:43] <Guilty_as_Sin> and yes..  I know my way around quite well
[12:44] <raymondjtoth> frank i donse see them
[12:44] <|_ocke> crimsun, thats what i thought, cause ive read of enabling modules to support new hardware
[12:44] <ikonia> Guilty_as_Sin: you may want to drop the language attitude, its getting you no-where
[12:44] <BK> bulio, the first thing you see when it opens
[12:44] <raymondjtoth> what i do now
[12:44] <Guilty_as_Sin> port forwarded static ip's the works
[12:44] <linuxnub> !azureus
[12:44] <ubotu> azureus is a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AzureusHowTo
[12:44] <aroo> Guilty_as_Sin: stop crying please
[12:44] <inf> madunz
[12:44] <Guilty_as_Sin> lol
[12:44] <idefixx> Guilty_as_Sin: around what.. its doesnt work because you dont know how to use it.. so it sux. well if you call that knowledge.
[12:44] <linuxnub> azureus screams
[12:44] <Guilty_as_Sin> doesn't take much to get a response out of you
[12:44] <bulio> BK, I checked it all
[12:44] <|_ocke> crimsun, :) yes, the via is the bane of all existence
[12:45] <omegacenti> ignoring Guilty_as_Sin
[12:45] <lynucs> Guilty_as_Sin: my torrent rocks
[12:45] <frank|\> raymondjtoth,  you opened synaptic? you typed firefox
[12:45] <m1r> maybe Guilty_as_Sin a M$ $py ?
[12:45] <ikonia> using bag language and a bad attitude as your the only one provokes a response.
[12:45] <angelology> #ubuntu-es
[12:45] <aroo> Guilty_as_Sin: /ignored
[12:45] <Guilty_as_Sin> nah'
[12:45] <gravemind> Guilty_as_Sin: which client do you use
[12:45] <|_ocke> everything they touch turns to issues
[12:45] <Guilty_as_Sin> no spy here buddy
[12:45] <ikonia> Guilty_as_Sin: what client are you using
[12:45] <m1r> then please behave m8
[12:45] <BK> bulio, K, now close that window and then search for "gstreamer"
[12:45] <ikonia> Guilty_as_Sin: and what version of ubuntu
[12:45] <Guilty_as_Sin> well I've tried a few
[12:45] <raymondjtoth> yes when i typed in firefox plug in
[12:45] <gravemind> Guilty_as_Sin: I hope something better than the default one
[12:45] <raymondjtoth> i get them
[12:45] <IndyGunFreak> lol,
[12:45] <Guilty_as_Sin> bit tornado seems to be the most promising so far
[12:45] <gravemind> Guilty_as_Sin: true dat
[12:45] <crimsun> |_ocke: so you have an onboard via and another audio device, and you want the non-onboard to be default?
[12:45] <Guilty_as_Sin> but azureus sucks donkey balls
[12:46] <ikonia> Guilty_as_Sin: can you PLEASE drop the language
[12:46] <linuxnub> sounds like user error to me cuz mine totally rocks
[12:46] <omegacenti> IndyGunFreak: Any clue as to how to get the horrible default sounds off of my machine easily? I am sick of my computer sounding like a jungle.
[12:46] <ikonia> you've been asked numerous times
[12:46] <raf256> ubuntu do use pghp signing in apt-get right?
[12:46] <Guilty_as_Sin> core dump core dump etc..  I'm sure it's a lib here and there
[12:46] <raf256> php
[12:46] <raf256> pgp
[12:46] <Guilty_as_Sin> but still
[12:46] <aroo> Just ignore him
[12:46] <aroo> He's trolling
[12:46] <bulio> BK, now which package?
[12:46] <IndyGunFreak> omegacenti: lol, not offhand.
[12:46] <|_ocke> crimsun, yes, exactly
[12:46] <ikonia> Guilty_as_Sin: thats normally because its a java client and your using hte wrong version of java
[12:46] <omegacenti> Dang.
[12:46] <gravemind> Guilty_as_Sin: that's not normal operation
[12:46] <linuxnub> anyway torrents dont have a bloomin thing to do with linux
[12:46] <BK> bulio, mark for installation: ffmpeg, plugins bad,plugins ugly and fluendo-mp3
[12:46] <Guilty_as_Sin> you think?
[12:46] <|_ocke> crimsun, preferably for the onboard to be completely gone
[12:46] <majorglory> Hello!
[12:46] <omegacenti> Any clue as to how to get the horrible default sounds off of my machine easily? I am sick of my computer sounding like a jungle.
[12:46] <aroo> KTorrent works perfectly for me
[12:47] <gravemind> Guilty_as_Sin: does it happen with bittornado?
[12:47] <idefixx> aroo: i dont think that is trolling, he really means it :)
[12:47] <|_ocke> crimsun, technically it should already be gone, as it is disabled in the BIOS
[12:47] <ikonia> omegacenti: you want to remove the startup nsound ?
[12:47] <idefixx> aroo: sad but true.
[12:47] <aroo> idefixx: he's talking about sucking animal genetalia
[12:47] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, sorry say again
[12:47] <BK> bulio, be right back
[12:47] <omegacenti> ikonia: soething like that, or replace it with better sounds.. along with the gdm sound, the startup sound, the shutdown sound...
[12:47] <linuxnub> i think hes just frustrated with a slow torrent
[12:47] <ikonia> omegacenti: read the forum on how to change themes and sounds
[12:47] <linuxnub> which dont have a thing to do with linux or ubuntu
[12:47] <majorglory> Can anyone help me out with sound?
[12:48] <omegacenti> ikonia: where would that be?
[12:48] <ikonia> omegacenti: works the same way as windows a sound file mapped to an event
[12:48] <IndyGunFreak> linuxnub: of course it does!
[12:48] <ikonia> omegacenti: help.ubuntu.com
[12:48] <crimsun> majorglory: status update, plesae
[12:48] <idefixx> aroo: well.. attitude
[12:48] <linuxnub> no it doesnt

[12:48] <omegacenti> ikonia: I will check that out
[12:48] <BK> bulio, well?
[12:48] <raymondjtoth> frank can use media firefoix olugin
[12:48] <crimsun> |_ocke: no, bios status for integrated audio is ignored on some boards.
[12:48] <linuxnub> your supporting data IndyGunFreak ?
[12:48] <raymondjtoth> plugin
[12:48] <CraZy675> why can't I ever install flash player 9?  it never downloads from fpdownload.macromedia.com
[12:48] <bulio> BK, cant find ffmpeg
[12:48] <ikonia> CraZy675: what version of ubuntu are you using
[12:48] <majorglory> crimsun: i have the file you asked me to download. i have no idea how to execute alsa-info.sh
[12:49] <IndyGunFreak> linuxnub: perhaps my being facetious doesn't come through in type very well.
[12:49] <aroo> CraZy675: apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree

[12:49] <crimsun> |_ocke: you need: echo blacklist snd-via82xx|sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[12:49] <frank|\> raymondjtoth,  can use?? or cant??
[12:49] <linuxnub> ahh lol
[12:49] <linuxnub> sorry
[12:49] <raymondjtoth> i can
[12:49] <crimsun> majorglory: where did you save the file?
[12:49] <IndyGunFreak> no sweat,
[12:49] <ikonia> CraZy675: just get it out of synaptic then, you don't download from macromedia
[12:49] <gravemind> So, who wants to help me use gparted on my ntfs partition? It's currently mounted like this: # /dev/sda1
[12:49] <gravemind> UUID=2CA825ECA825B4EC /media/windows  ntfs-3g    defaults,rw,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[12:49] <|_ocke> crimsun, k lemme try it
[12:49] <majorglory> crimsun: /home/majorglory
[12:49] <frank|\> raymondjtoth,  so u installed the plugins?
[12:49] <xenex> does anyone know how to make flash not overlap content? (example = www.guildwars.com)
[12:50] <CraZy675> ok I'll try that
[12:50] <ikonia> xenex: thats normally plugin/site incompatability
[12:50] <crimsun> majorglory: open a Terminal/Konsole/xterm, and type: bash ~/alsa-info.sh
[12:50] <PriceChild> xenex, complain to the webmaster :)
[12:50] <linuxnub> lolol
[12:50] <omegacenti> ikonia: I really tried and didn't find anything be default, tried searching for themese, then tried .msg ubotu !theme
[12:50] <kslc> crimsun: http://www.pastebin.ca/557294
[12:51] <BK> bulio, it should be there. But if it aint, I guess you really don't NEED it. but if you start having probs in the future with certain formats, that might be why. ffmpeg is mostly for video anyway.
[12:51] <majorglory> crimsun: http://pastebin.ca/557295
[12:51] <akromyk> is there any simple program like kate that would allow me to compile c++ in gnome?
[12:51] <linuxnub> !theme
[12:51] <ubotu> Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[12:51] <|_ocke> crimsun, blacklist snd-via82xx is the output
[12:51] <ikonia> omegacenti: I really don't mean to be rude - but everytime I've offered you advise on something you've not looked you've just rushed in
[12:51] <omegacenti> linuxnub: I already got that message
[12:51] <linuxnub> ahh
[12:51] <|_ocke> does that mean its successful?
[12:51] <linuxnub> i just use the default themes they work ok
[12:51] <ikonia> omegacenti: I've offered you help on ntop/sar/themes/others and provided you links - have you read anything from tldp.org yet ?
[12:51] <ihateusernames> how would i reset the xorg.conf file from a terminal?
[12:52] <hydan> anyone know why vim might be frozen on desktop 1? and does anyone know how to retrieve the text file i was working on in it?
[12:52] <ikonia> ihateusernames: did you back it up
[12:52] <idefixx> CraZy675: that is because gw site is made by ppl who use ie only... you could try opera. not sure if that'll work tho
[12:52] <ihateusernames> yea, pretty sure
[12:52] <hydan> i hadn't saved it :(
[12:52] <ikonia> ihateusernames: copy the backup file back over
[12:52] <ihateusernames> how?
[12:52] <luddite> hey all what's the best way to make sure your version of x matches your version of nvidia module
[12:52] <CraZy675> I'm using swiftfox
[12:52] <ikonia> ihateusernames: use nautlius to copy the backup file over the current one
[12:52] <Sh3r1ff> ikonia: wont work need to be root for that
[12:53] <ikonia> Sh3r1ff: so ?
[12:53] <Sh3r1ff> ihateusernames: use the terminal
[12:53] <ikonia> Sh3r1ff: you can do that as root in nautlius
[12:53] <ihateusernames> all i have is the terminal, and im new to linux, so can you give me the command for it
[12:53] <crimsun> |_ocke: good, should take effect next boot.
[12:53] <KI4IKL> What is a good website for gnome themes?
[12:53] <gravemind> I think my fstab is screwed up, I get an error trying to unmount the partition saying mount /media/windows disagrees with fstab
[12:53] <ikonia> ihateusernames: sudo cp $path_to_backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:53] <IndyGunFreak> http://www.gnome-look.org
[12:53] <crimsun> kslc: yep, looks like a buggered DSDT
[12:53] <KI4IKL> Thanks
[12:53] <omegacenti> ikonia: don't worry about it, I also searched there. I am not trying to be rude, but you directions are vague as to how to actually locate stuff for ubuntu in relation to sounds.
[12:53] <IndyGunFreak> np
[12:53] <dawn_chorus> KI4IKL, i live art.gnome.org
[12:53] <ihateusernames> thanks
[12:53] <idefixx> CraZy675: that basicly mozilla (gecko) and gecko is used by konquere and most other free browsers not opera tho.
[12:53] <Sh3r1ff> ihateusernames: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:54] <omegacenti> Are sounds a part of themes? or are they different packages all together? I want to change all of the sounds my computer makes.
[12:54] <ikonia> omegacenti: go to the forums and the help wiki and search for themes and sounds and you thing thats "vague"
[12:54] <linuxnub> !google | omegacenti
[12:54] <ubotu> omegacenti: Google is a very popular search engine: http://www.google.com  -  Google also has a Linux-specific search engine: http://google.com/linux
[12:54] <KI4IKL> Just fyi...if anyone has multiple pc's, can be of different os's, and keyboards and mice clutter your desk, reduce it to one mouse, one keyboard for all three, goes through the screen to each pc...use synergy
[12:54] <kslc> crimsun: hm so is there anything that can be done to get it to work?
[12:54] <ikonia> omegacenti: you've not even looked ! system ---> administration ---> sounds !
[12:54] <thechris> i'm having issues with sound syncing on xvid videos in "movie player".  any way to fix this issue?
[12:54] <KI4IKL> and it carries over the clipboard
[12:54] <crimsun> kslc: sure.  Try http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Fix_Common_ACPI_Problems
[12:54] <ikonia> omegacenti: system -->preferences ---> sound
[12:54] <raymondjtoth> sorry got bumped
[12:55] <omegacenti> ikonia: thats the first time you told me to search a wiki.
[12:55] <gravemind> this is the whole error: Cannot unmount the volume 'Windows Disk'. Details: [mntent] : warning: no final newline at the end of /etc/fstab; umount: /media/windows mount disagrees with the fstab
[12:55] <C_lewis> Where can i find drivers for a onboard mirage vga?
[12:55] <gravemind> how do I fix this?
[12:55] <crimsun> kslc: you'll need to compile your own DSDT and add it to your initramfs.
[12:55] <HAVEANICEDAYB> my gateways laptop does not boot unbuntu

[12:56] <IndyGunFreak> unbuntu.. thats a new one

[12:56] <linuxnub> !symlinks

[12:57] <crimsun> omegacenti: or if you'd like to see how a derivative handles it, see how Ubuntu Studio's audio metapackage does it.
[12:57] <majorglory> crimsun: STATICY! thats the word im looking for. sounds like static

[12:58] <raymondjtoth> xi still here
[12:58] <kbrooks> smallfoot, fresh does not mean working
[12:58] <crimsun> majorglory: meaning audio is audible but it's mostly static?
[12:58] <smallfoot> but i want latest and good
[12:58] <majorglory> crimsun: exactly
[12:58] <raymondjtoth> frabk
[12:58] <ikonia> smallfoot: why ?
[12:58] <HAVEANICEDAYB> HELP ME SOMEONE I AM DESPERATE
[12:58] <smallfoot> i bought GeForce 8600, and my performance is like a 386, whats up with  that?
[12:58] <|_ocke> i wish i could just put ubuntu on, make it use redmondxp theme, and load all her data up hehe
[12:58] <ikonia> smallfoot: its clear you don't know what your doing
[12:58] <luddite> let me restate, how do i load nvidia modules appropriately.  My constant error is that my version of X is not appropriate for the nvidia module.
   die you try with acpi=off    or google for hardware support ubuntu
[12:58] <smallfoot> ikonia, bugfixes, new cool stuff
[12:58] <raymondjtoth> frank
[12:58] <ikonia> smallfoot: such as ?

[12:58] <ikonia> smallfoot: give me an example
[12:58] <Sh3r1ff> smallfoot: rhen compile your own kernel ;)
[12:58] <smallfoot> ikonia, idk
[12:58] <smallfoot> no idea
[12:58] <ikonia> smallfoot: excactly
[12:58] <kbrooks> smallfoot, stop trolling :-)
[12:58] <raymondjtoth> ok frank didnt know that
[12:59] <|_ocke> smallfoot, have you installed nvidia drivers] 
[12:59] <smallfoot> well, in slackware you just do linux-specific commands, in ubuntu its more difficult to compile a kernel
[12:59] <ikonia> smallfoot: no its not
[12:59] <ikonia> smallfoot: its very straight forward
[12:59] <crimsun> majorglory: ok, two things to try: 1) decrease all DXS levels in your volume mixer; 2) isolate via82xx onto its own irq
[12:59] <linuxnub> !drivers | smallfoot
[12:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about drivers - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:59] <kbrooks> smallfoot, no, just a few extra commands
[12:59] <gillzon> how do i get my volume button work on the keyboard:P?
[12:59] <smallfoot> |_ocke, i tried, but it wrecked my whole x, and wouldnt work, and said version was mismatch
[12:59] <luddite> aaah... man i wish ubuntu didn't have the the logo.. i just did a dmesg | grep nvidia.. and found that i've already tainted my kernel
[12:59] <HAVEANICEDAYB> I can't I am at my cusz's house he blocked search engines
[12:59] <ikonia> smallfoot: the kernel doesn't use X
[12:59] <luddite> time for a FRESH kernel
[12:59] <luddite> :)
[12:59] <CoF> crimsun: well, didn't work
[12:59] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[12:59] <smallfoot> ikonia: ya i know
[12:59] <InMyMind> ..
[12:59] <|_ocke> smallfoot, you have to install it from outside the gui
[12:59] <familie> Guys anyone help me we  got past midnight here: My printer works for every applicaion except "evince" but i need it to print a pdf file i need in 7 hours! Any help appreciated!
[01:00] <ikonia> smallfoot: so why are you suggesting it messed up your xorg
[01:00] <m1r> symlink help needed
[01:00] <|_ocke> and you have to install it as root
[01:00] <smallfoot> |_ocke: ah, ok
[01:00] <majorglory> crimsun: im afraid i dont know how to do either of it. i just installed ubuntu yesterday for the first time
[01:00] <crimsun> majorglory: for (1), try small increments for all for elements simultaneously.  They're currently set to 81%; try decreasing them to 79%, i.e., use 2% steps.
[01:00] <linuxnub> the kernel is mainly drivers and stuff like that
[01:00] <smallfoot> ikonia: i downloaded NVIDIA drivers, and it didnt work, so i got it from nvidia.com and it fucked everything up, i had go boot recovery mode, and then my console was all tsrange
[01:00] <bruenig> familie, lpr -p <printername> file.pdf
[01:00] <IndyGunFreak> thats a new one, i can't do a search because search engines are blocked.
[01:00] <IndyGunFreak> A for originality
[01:00] <ikonia> smallfoot: don't use bad language
[01:00] <dawn_chorus> m1r, what sort of problem are you having?
[01:00] <|_ocke> the kernel is everything that makes linux what it is :)
[01:00] <crimsun> majorglory: you can adjust them using the volume applet in your notification area (upper right corner of screen)
[01:00] <smallfoot> oh sory
[01:00] <bruenig> familie, no brackets
[01:00] <PriceChild> !ohmy | smallfoot
[01:00] <ubotu> smallfoot: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:00] <smallfoot> ok
[01:01] <ikonia> smallfoot: just use the kernel ubuntu provides, its tried and tested by a lot of people
[01:01] <|_ocke> smallfoot, try using easyubuntu or automatix to do it
[01:01] <m1r> dawn_chorus , i instaled vsftpd and am trying to set /var/www/website to /home/website
[01:01] <ikonia> smallfoot: if you don't know why your updating - don't update

[01:01] <bruenig> !automatix | |_ocke smallfoot
[01:01] <ubotu> |_ocke smallfoot: please see above
[01:01] <smallfoot> ikonia: ya i use thta one
[01:01] <KI4IKL> What is the extension for gtk theme files?
[01:01] <crimsun> majorglory: keep in mind you may need to add them (right-click speaker icon, Open Volume Control> Edit> Preferences)
[01:01] <DigitalNinja> Can someone recommend a short list of extra software that you feel should be in a default install of Ubuntu?
[01:01] <IndyGunFreak> DigitalNinja: why?
[01:01] <bruenig> !offtopic | DigitalNinja
[01:01] <ubotu> DigitalNinja: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:01] <dawn_chorus> m1r, so what's keeping you from doing that?
[01:01] <majorglory> crimsun: so basically just reduce the volume on everything
[01:01] <linuxnub> jeez whats with all the automatix hate it works wonders for me and has never caused a single problem
[01:02] <crimsun> majorglory: no.  Only those four DXS elements.
[01:02] <m1r> dawn_chorus,  i think i made big mess trying all options with it
[01:02] <crimsun> CoF: what doesn't?
[01:02] <bruenig> I think less software should be default, it should just be a kernel, basic stuff and a prompt
[01:02] <lynucs> ikonia: hi, me again :)  do you maybe know how i could watch strems on www.corbina.tv?
[01:02] <IndyGunFreak> easyubuntu i don't believe is supported anymore.
[01:02] <ikonia> linuxnub: because its a pointless product that in the past has done more damage than good
[01:02] <smallfoot> and i goto this "restricted driver management" thing, and it say i dont need restricted drivers, yeah i know, cuz i see graphics on my screen, so i dont need it, but i want it so i can use cool stuff like beryl, i bought a geforce 8600 =/
[01:02] <ikonia> lynucs: never used it
[01:02] <CoF> crimsun: the newest version of alsa
[01:02] <HAVEANICEDAYB> hello
[01:02] <|_ocke> i have had some problems with automatix
[01:02] <m1r> it works when i put  ln -s , but after rebbot it gone
[01:02] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: good !
[01:02] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[01:02] <idefixx> !worksforme | linuxnub
[01:02] <ubotu> linuxnub: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[01:02] <majorglory> crimsun: no idea what DXS is =)
[01:02] <ikonia> HAVEANICEDAYB: let me guess, your gateway laptop won't boot
[01:02] <bruenig> |_ocke, why did you just recommend it then?
[01:02] <|_ocke> but if you just use it for a few things like nvidia drivers, it should be fine
[01:02] <Veinor> so, is it recommended to upgrade to feisty, or are the glitches not worth it?
[01:02] <ikonia> HAVEANICEDAYB: and you can't view the web becuase you house blocke dit
[01:02] <familie> bruenig: where to find my printer's name?
[01:02] <smallfoot> and the partitioner in the installer was broken, it couldnt create partitions as i wanted to
[01:02] <linuxnub> understood but its a nice tool just the same
[01:02] <kbrooks> |_ocke, not true
[01:02] <|_ocke> its when you get into doing EVERYTHING it has probs
[01:02] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: lol, isn't that a good one
[01:03] <HAVEANICEDAYB> no unbunto won't boot from cd'
[01:03] <smallfoot> i told it to create a 480 gb partition, and it made it 30 gb
[01:03] <|_ocke> and im sure its a lot better now than back then
[01:03] <ikonia> linuxnub: its  pointless tool
[01:03] <familie> wha cant it just print this freakin pile of s***
[01:03] <IndyGunFreak> unbunto?
[01:03] <crimsun> CoF: file a bug report using Mantis, then.
[01:03] <|_ocke> ive used it since and not had problems
[01:03] <linuxnub> if you know what your doing then manual install is the way to go sure
[01:03] <ikonia> linuxnub: it serves no purpose
[01:03] <ikonia> linuxnub: ubuntu 7.04 does everything it can do
[01:03] <HAVEANICEDAYB> my house blocked search engines
[01:03] <KI4IKL> Hey, I hate a GTK theme but I click "Install new theme" button and it says it can't because it isnt' eh right file, anyone have a link to how to install gtk themes
[01:03] <bruenig> familie, oh yeah ubuntu automatically names it, should be here: http://localhost:631/printers
[01:03] <ikonia> HAVEANICEDAYB: go speak to you house and ask them to unblock them
[01:03] <CoF> crimsun: Mantis?
[01:03] <Veinor> so, is it recommended to upgrade to feisty, or are the glitches not worth it?
[01:03] <smallfoot> im began thinking maybe i should try slackware or arch linux instead
[01:03] <kbrooks> !ohmy | familie
[01:03] <ubotu> familie: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:03] <IndyGunFreak> |_ocke: the big issue with automatix, seems to be when people upgrade, it borks the upgrade if the automatix repo is not removed
[01:03] <linuxnub> yes Fiesty has grabbed most the stuff i needed but it did not have some too
[01:04] <CrustyPunk> Hey, I've just installed Ubuntu Studio, and I'm not getting any sound. Any ideas of what's wrong?
[01:04] <ikonia> smallfoot: if you can't handle the basics - swapping distros won't change
[01:04] <XtypeWriter74> any midnight commander users or knowhowers around that can help me set vlc player as video player ? here is my /etc/mc/mc.etx --->  http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/11610/
[01:04] <linuxnub> virtualbox for example
[01:04] <kbrooks> familie, even with ur "***" censuring, u r still swearing
[01:04] <HAVEANICEDAYB> no all i need is i need to know how to get my gateway to boot from cd
[01:04] <smallfoot> ikonia: okay
[01:04] <ortega10> a few days ago, when booting ubuntu it gave me an emergency console only (not even recovery mode)... i ran a fsck, it fixed several ext3 errors, and booted normally... yesterday i had a problem with synaptic ("no access to  root\.synaptic\selections.update" or something like that), so i rebooted again... and this time it won't even give me any console, it freezes, and when i choose recovery mode, it says "ext3-fs hda3: orphan cleanup on r
[01:04] <FireHazard17> how come ubntu's kernel is not the most recent?
[01:04] <smallfoot> ikonia: but i want 3D graphics, kinda, and now my screen is 60 hz, but i want it 80 hz
[01:04] <IndyGunFreak> FireHazard17: cuz its not l33t
[01:04] <kbrooks> FireHazard17, ironic, smallfoot asked that
[01:04] <bruenig> FireHazard17, wrong distro if you want that
[01:04] <ikonia> FireHazard17: because thats the version that was in use when the ubuntu version was packaged
[01:04] <crimsun> CoF: ALSA's bug tracker.
[01:04] <familie> bruenig: ah a gui thank you very much perhaps i'll get it now
[01:05] <Sh3r1ff> !kernel
[01:05] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[01:05] <linuxnub> you can manual install virtualbox using forum howto or just have automatix do it for you
[01:05] <ikonia> smallfoot: thats nothing to do with your kernel
[01:05] <crimsun> CoF: go to the home page, click Bug Reporting[..] 
[01:05] <raymondjtoth> frank in one player you gave me how i get trhe nspeed for my wireless
[01:05] <smallfoot> ikonia: no 2.6.15 was used in ubuntu, and 2.6.16 is in repositry
[01:05] <kbrooks> !worksforme | FireHazard17
[01:05] <majorglory> crimsun: I'm unsure what you meant by reduce DXS levels, but I lowered the volume as I played Sax.ogg in my Examples folder
[01:05] <ubotu> FireHazard17: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[01:05] <raymondjtoth> in kaffeine oplayer
[01:05] <ikonia> smallfoot: thats to do with the nvidia drivers not being compatible with your card minitor
[01:05] <smallfoot> ikonia: ya, i know, but i want still latest kernel lol
[01:05] <CrustyPunk> Hey, I've just installed Ubuntu Studio, and I'm not getting any sound. Any ideas of what's wrong?
[01:05] <ikonia> smallfoot: why ?
[01:05] <FireHazard17> the latest from ubuntu's server's is 2.6.20-16 and the newest stable is 2.6.21.4
[01:05] <ikonia> smallfoot: its silly to update becuase you want a bigger number
[01:05] <kbrooks> smallfoot, no, you probably don't
[01:05] <ikonia> FireHazard17: so ?
[01:05] <crimsun> CrustyPunk: what sound card do you have?
[01:05] <bruenig> familie, that is just to know the name, so you can do the lpr command, it should be in big reddish letters
[01:05] <Sh3r1ff> !kernel | smallfoot
[01:05] <ubotu> smallfoot: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[01:05] <smallfoot> ikonia, cuz if i wanted old, i would download slackware 5.0 with kernel 2.0 :p
[01:05] <ikonia> smallfoot: the fact that you have %0 idea what your doing suggests swapping kernels isn't for you
[01:06] <crimsun> majorglory: no, this is not the "main volume" or anything like that.  It's four /specific/ volume sliders.
[01:06] <frank|\> raymondjtoth, i dont know sorry
[01:06] <majorglory> crimsun: the static is still present until all the sound is inaudible. as in the static level varies directly with the volume level
[01:06] <CrustyPunk> crimsun: I've got an audigy
[01:06] <kbrooks> smallfoot, not a good reason.
[01:06] <smallfoot> i dont want to use old software when there is new
[01:06] <ikonia> smallfoot: your argument is weak
[01:06] <FireHazard17> i dont car really i just wanted to know if it was a technical issue or just a time one
[01:06] <PriceChild> smallfoot, very wrong.
[01:06] <XtremeMoToBoy> any brazilian?
[01:06] <Veinor> so, is it recommended to upgrade to feisty, or are the glitches not worth it?
[01:06] <ikonia> smallfoot: but you don't know whats in the new or what it does or what it breaks
[01:06] <PriceChild> smallfoot, a higher version number does not necessarily mean best
[01:06] <ortega10> a few days ago, when booting ubuntu it gave me an emergency console only (not even recovery mode)... i ran a fsck, it fixed several ext3 errors, and booted normally... yesterday i had a problem with synaptic ("no access to  root\.synaptic\selections.update" or something like that), so i rebooted again... and this time it won't even give me any console, it freezes, and when i choose recovery mode, it says "ext3-fs hda3: orphan cleanup on r

[01:06] <ubotu> XtremeMoToBoy: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[01:06] <ikonia> FireHazard17: no reason to change
[01:06] <crimsun> CrustyPunk: what's the output from `asoundconf list`?
[01:06] <XtremeMoToBoy> thanks
[01:06] <smallfoot> okay
[01:06] <Veinor> so, is it recommended to upgrade to feisty, or are the glitches not worth it?
[01:06] <kitche> FireHazard17: it's just so the whole system is stable and with 2.6.21 it uses libata and people complained about it a lot so ubuntu is still decided on it :)
[01:07] <smallfoot> but i dont like this 60 hz thing, in my other operating system, i could use 85 hz, why i have to settle for less?
[01:07] <kbrooks> Veinor, upgrade
[01:07] <PriceChild> Veinor, if things are working for you right now, why risk it?
[01:07] <kbrooks> kitche, erm
[01:07] <ikonia> smallfoot: what other operating system
[01:07] <CrustyPunk> crimsun: Names of available sound cards: NVidia, CA0106
[01:07] <FireHazard17> kitche: thank you you actually are helpful
[01:07] <smallfoot> ikonia: take a wild guess lol
[01:07] <kbrooks> kitche, s/and .*// :-)
[01:07] <ikonia> smallfoot: that sounds like a driver issue
[01:07] <ikonia> smallfoot: just tell me
[01:07] <smallfoot> windows xp
[01:07] <ikonia> smallfoot: right - so totally different drivers
[01:07] <Sh3r1ff> smallfoot: upgrading your kernel wont solve that ;)
[01:07] <smallfoot> ya, i know
[01:07] <familie> bruenig: lpr -P is what you mean imho
[01:07] <kbrooks> FireHazard17, whatever kitche said after the first "and" is totally irrevelant
[01:07] <ikonia> smallfoot: if the driver is incompatible in ubuntu it will be in every other distro - they all use the same driver
[01:07] <bruenig> familie, whatever
[01:07] <smallfoot> but why i have to settle with 60 hz on linux, instead of 85 hz?
[01:08] <smallfoot> ikonia: ya i know
[01:08] <FireHazard17> kbrooks: not really
[01:08] <kbrooks> smallfoot, because it works
[01:08] <familie> bruenig: "job stopped"
[01:08] <ikonia> smallfoot: so why are you saying random things like I want to update the kernel
[01:08] <Veinor> smallfoot: Because nvidia doesn't like linux, so the drivers aren't as good. and can you really tell the difference?
[01:08] <FireHazard17> kbrooks: thats what i wanted to know
[01:08] <smallfoot> kbrooks: but i dont want 60 hz, i want 85 or 100 hz
[01:08] <familie> bruenig: resuming doesnt work
[01:08] <smallfoot> ikonia: because i wanted that too
[01:08] <Sh3r1ff> smallfoot: if you don't like it, go back to windows ;)
[01:08] <ikonia> smallfoot: doesn't look like you can have it, or you'll have ot lean to conifigure xorg properly
[01:08] <PriceChild> smallfoot, change /etc/X11/xorg.conf if you really want to. But the human eye doesn't really detect a difference over 30Hz... all you're doing is putting more load on your video card.
[01:08] <smallfoot> Veinor: maybe
[01:08] <IndyGunFreak> Veinor: ?... if you think nvidia doesn't like Linux, you should try to mess with an ATI card
[01:08] <bruenig> familie, should work, get another pdf viewer if you must
[01:08] <gravemind> hey guys, who knows how to fstab?
[01:08] <ikonia> gravemind: whats the problem
[01:08] <Veinor> IndyGunFreak: Argh, now I forgot that jokes don't transfer
 smallfoot: Because nvidia doesn't like linux, so the drivers aren't as good. and can you really tell the difference? # ati doesnt like linux yet
[01:09] <Veinor> gravemind: I'm a minor fstabber
[01:09] <familie> i just installed kpdf it doesnt work either
[01:09] <crimsun> CrustyPunk: do you want to use -only- the Audigy LS/ES?
[01:09] <IndyGunFreak> Veinor: lol..
[01:09] <gravemind> ikonia: I get an error trying to unmount my windows permission, let me get it
[01:09] <KI4IKL> What ist he folder to copy themes into?
[01:09] <kbrooks> Veinor, they never transferred.
[01:09] <smallfoot> kbrooks: ya i didnt buy ATI cuz it sucks, but i bought NVIDIA GeForce 8600, its supposed to be good card, its the latest generation
[01:09] <familie> bruenig: test pages are printed immediately
[01:09] <ikonia> KI4IKL: just open theme manager and drag it in
[01:09] <|_ocke> yeah, the human eye actually isnt capable of seeing anything over like 45fps and 45hz if you are the most perceptive person ever
[01:09] <bluebanana> how can i find out my monitor's native resolution?
[01:09] <KI4IKL> It's a folder, ikonia
[01:09] <bruenig> familie, can you print other stuff, web pages perhaps in firefox
[01:09] <ikonia> smallfoot: yes, but its not supported in the nvidia linux driver
[01:09] <familie> bruenig: why doesnt it work with my normal docs?
[01:09] <ikonia> KI4IKL: then tar it up
[01:09] <CrustyPunk> Yeah, the "nvidia" is referring to an onboard sound card that is fried and useless to me :P
[01:09] <|_ocke> smallfoot, what processor/ram configuration
[01:09] <smallfoot> ikonia: not on the proprietary NVIDIA driver either?
[01:10] <ikonia> smallfoot: no
[01:10] <kbrooks> statement.transfer(other_person, as_joke) # :P
[01:10] <dawn_chorus> bluebanana, should be included with your monitor's documentation.
[01:10] <gravemind> ikonia: umount: /media/windows mount disagrees with the fstab
[01:10] <gravemind> my fstab is here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25033/
[01:10] <FireHazard17> kbrooks: nvidia like linux there driver's sre great and they them selves have said they like linux ati said fine we will release better linux drivers they just havent yet
[01:10] <ikonia> gravemind: is that the error
[01:10] <familie> bruenig: web pages work instantly
[01:10] <smallfoot> |_ocke: i got brand new computer with Core 2 Duo, 2.13 GHz, 4 gb RAM, GeForce 8600, 500 gb HDD, SATA DVD, P35 chipset
[01:10] <PriceChild> ikonia, it will do different freqs.... won't it?
[01:10] <gravemind> ikonia: yeah
[01:10] <bluebanana> dawn_chorus, i got the monitor from a friend
[01:10] <bruenig> familie, don't know
[01:10] <ikonia> PriceChild: yes, totally, I think he'll get the results
[01:10] <dawn_chorus> bluebanana, what make and model?
[01:10] <kbrooks> FireHazard17, i know.
[01:10] <familie> bruenig: i just need this pdf it is very important for me
[01:10] <familie> can anyone help me?
[01:11] <majorglory> crimsun: i re-read your directions and found the DXS things. All four DXS levels are at 0% only the static is present.
[01:11] <ikonia> gravemind: thats not your fstab
[01:11] <Sh3r1ff> familie: you can downlad acrobat and build it from source
[01:11] <FireHazard17> smallfoot: nice!
[01:11] <IndyGunFreak> familie: open office will read pdf's
[01:11] <gravemind> ikonia: lol it isn't?
[01:11] <ikonia> gravemind: no
[01:11] <bluebanana> proview Electronics. Model: 772M. Product number: PX-769
[01:11] <smallfoot> FireHazard17: yeah its nice, but now i want it to work nice in Linux too, I want the screensavers not to lag :(
[01:11] <KI4IKL> ikonia, it is a folder.
[01:11] <ikonia> smallfoot: then wait for the drivers to catch up
[01:11] <FireHazard17> smallfoot: what is happening
[01:11] <gravemind> ikonia: It looks like my fstab
[01:12] <ikonia> KI4IKL: yes, and I told you tar it up
[01:12] <crimsun> majorglory: no, not at zero - sound will be inaudible then.  Did you try 77%?  From your feedback, it seems like you'll need to try and move other pci peripherals off the sound device's irq.
[01:12] <ikonia> gravemind: no its not
[01:12] <smallfoot> FireHazard17: i dont know, its tricky with drivers
[01:12] <ikonia> its fdisk output
[01:12] <gravemind> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25033/
[01:12] <smallfoot> ikonia: but i thought 8600 was supported in proprietary device drivers?
[01:12] <IndyGunFreak> familie: there's a pdf reader on the default install.
[01:12] <FireHazard17> smallfoot: yeah i say wait till newer drivers come along
[01:12] <smallfoot> and doesnt Ubuntu have libc installed?
[01:12] <adsims2001> Hi, does the alternate install CD of ubuntu install without booting the operating system first?
[01:12] <FireHazard17> smallfoot: i think it is
[01:12] <ikonia> smallfoot: yes it does have libc installed
[01:12] <IndyGunFreak> its in the apps/office menu
[01:12] <FireHazard17> adsims2001: yes
[01:12] <KI4IKL> sorry, missed that ikonia
[01:12] <ikonia> gravemind: ahhh thats better
[01:12] <adsims2001> Alright, thanks.
[01:12] <PriceChild> smallfoot, that card was released after ubuntu's latest release and so no.
[01:12] <smallfoot> ikonia: oh cuz the drivers wanted compile something, but complained
[01:12] <familie> IndyGunFreak: this one doenst work, thats why i'm on this chan dude
[01:12] <majorglory> crimsun: how do I find out which IRQ my sound is working on and which IRQs to move the other peripherals to?
[01:12] <TaJMoX> I never get a response - can someone look at my problem? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=469962
[01:12] <smallfoot> PriceChild: oh ok
[01:12] <ikonia> smallfoot: you don't compile the drivers
[01:13] <PriceChild> smallfoot, you can do it using 3rd party drivers...
[01:13] <gravemind> ikonia: I didn't change anything lol - what was it for you?
[01:13] <FireHazard17> price there is a thing called updates
[01:13] <crimsun> majorglory: look at /proc/interrupts
[01:13] <PriceChild> FireHazard17, not for things like taht ;)
[01:13] <ikonia> gravemind: pastebin was being silly
[01:13] <IndyGunFreak> familie: ok dude, good luck
[01:13] <PriceChild> FireHazard17, at least now anyway... might change in future.
[01:13] <smallfoot> my fonts look ugly, websites doesnt look good with these fonts, and the buttons on the website, dont look good
[01:13] <FireHazard17> PriceChild: yes if you can update the kernel you can update anything else
[01:13] <ikonia> FireHazard17: no you can't
[01:13] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[01:13] <FireHazard17> ikonia: what?
[01:13] <crimsun> majorglory: if there's a resampling issue, we can attempt to work around it in libasound2
[01:13] <PriceChild> FireHazard17, ubuntu has a very strict update policy
[01:14] <FireHazard17> o rly?
[01:14] <PriceChild> !fonts > smallfoot (see pm from ubotu)
[01:14] <ikonia> FireHazard17: if you can update the kernel you can't update anything else
[01:14] <majorglory> crimsun: nothing is in interrupts. only a "."
[01:14] <FireHazard17> ikonia: WHAT?
[01:14] <ikonia> FireHazard17: if you can update the kernel you can't update anything else
[01:14] <IndyGunFreak> lmao
[01:14] <ikonia> I'll say it again
[01:14] <PriceChild> ikonia, ?
[01:14] <crimsun> CrustyPunk: what's the output from `cat /proc/asound/modules`?
[01:14] <ikonia> PriceChild: you can't just update "anything" because you can update the kernel, libc and binutils for example would have massive implications
[01:14] <Zappasti> hello
[01:14] <FireHazard17> ive updated my kernel etc my browser even my nvidia driver
[01:14] <ikonia> so saying "if you can update the kernel you can update anything"
[01:15] <FireHazard17> so what cant you update
[01:15] <PriceChild> ikonia, your wording wasn't clear ;)
[01:15] <ikonia> PriceChild: ah
[01:15] <gravemind> ikonia: so what does that error mean?
[01:15] <Zappasti> i am having some trouble fixing screen resolution
[01:15] <BenLi> is there anyone here willing to help with Beryl installation?
[01:15] <ikonia> FireHazard17: pretty much any system libraries that are core to the distro
[01:15] <ortega10> when i boot ubuntu, it says "ext3-fs hda3: orphan cleanup on readonly
[01:15] <ortega10> fs", and doesn't even let me enter recovery mode... what should i do? (btw, i had some ext3 trouble a few days ago)
[01:15] <majorglory> crimsun: I'm sorry crimsun, but I'll be right back.
[01:15] <ikonia> gravemind: check the uuid of the disk on /mnt/windows
[01:15] <dawn_chorus> bluebanana, 17 inch, right?
[01:15] <Veinor> ikonia: Oh, you meant upgrading them at the same time
[01:15] <gravemind> BenLi: I can't, but try #ubuntu-effects
[01:15] <IndyGunFreak> !beryl | BenLi
[01:15] <ubotu> BenLi: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects

[01:15] <gravemind> ikonia: how do you check uuids?
[01:16] <ikonia> gravemind: blkid
[01:16] <gravemind> ikonia: thanks
[01:16] <Ausylo> hey guys, im having trouble installing unbuntu 6.06
[01:16] <Veinor> ikonia: huh? I've been upgrading stuff from my unupgraded kernel for a while.
[01:16] <crimsun> CrustyPunk: ok.  Use this command:  echo blacklist snd-hda-intel|sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[01:16] <sn0> Ausylo what problems are you having?
[01:16] <ikonia> Veinor: you can update "stuff" just not anything

[01:16] <ikonia> but thats off topic
[01:16] <elad> (Help?)
[01:16] <ikonia> elad: is mysql running ?
[01:16] <Veinor> ikonia: oh, you meant core things
[01:16] <jasin> My sql sucks.
[01:16] <Ausylo> sn0: when i go to install, it freezes on hardware drivers
[01:16] <elad> ikonia, I'm trying to run it for the first time.
[01:17] <dawn_chorus> bluebanana, 85Hz
[01:17] <ikonia> elad: have you started it up
[01:17] <bluebanana> dawn_chorus, thanks. does "native resolution" equal highest resolution?
[01:17] <ikonia> Veinor: yup
[01:17] <sn0> Ausylo what spec of a system are you attempting to install to?
[01:17] <Zappasti> i cannot find the right HorizSync values for my screen
[01:17] <bluebanana> dawn_chorus, how did you find that out?
[01:17] <elad> jasin, university course, I don't have a choice.
[01:17] <smallfoot> i hate having to configure stuff, its a pain, things should just "work out of the box", i dont have time to mess around and configure stuf
[01:17] <elad> ikonia, how do I do that then?
[01:17] <dawn_chorus> bluebanana, i just googled around.  :)
[01:17] <ikonia> smallfoot: use windows
[01:17] <Ausylo> sn0: turion 2ghz, 1gb ram, its a new laptop

[01:17] <smallfoot> yeah, its good OS, but its proprietary
[01:17] <Veinor> smallfoot: I don't think one command is 'a pain'
[01:17] <Monteh> IndyGunFreak: you here man?
[01:17] <jasin> elad, I see
[01:17] <sn0> Ausylo then maybe go with ubuntu feisty 7.04
[01:17] <Veinor> heh, "nearest mental health institute"
[01:17] <IndyGunFreak> Monteh: yeah
[01:17] <ikonia> smallfoot: seems like the best option for you
[01:17] <idefixx> smallfoot: what ikonia said... but i doubt reinstall it every month saves you time.
[01:18] <smallfoot> veinor, to know what command, i have to read websites
[01:18] <elad> ikonia, thanks. I'll have to do that each time, aye? Remind me please how I set a bash alias.
[01:18] <bruenig> smallfoot, or mac, you might want mac since they control all the hardware and software
[01:18] <TaJMoX> ubuntu works out of the box for me on all 4 pc's
[01:18] <CrustyPunk> crimsun: Awesome, thanks. One more quick question before I reboot though. I don't have the option to change my resolution to higher than 1024x768, though I should be able too
[01:18] <gravemind> ikonia: blkid /media/windows/ quits silently
[01:18] <Ausylo> sn0: is that right on the site?
[01:18] <smallfoot> idefixx, I have had my XP install for about 5 years now
[01:18] <ikonia> elad:  you won't have to do that every time
[01:18] <Zappasti> mm hullo? can anyone help me out, please?
[01:18] <dawn_chorus> bluebanana, you should be able to display up to 1280x1024 OK, though, maybe.
[01:18] <Veinor> smallfoot: Are you talking about building from source?
[01:18] <sn0> Ausylo yes its the latest version, www.ubuntu.com
[01:18] <elad> ikonia, I meant after each reboot.
[01:18] <Veinor> Zappasti: Ask your questions, or did you already?
[01:18] <ikonia> gravemind: just do blkid then check the references against those in /etc/fstab
[01:18] <ikonia> elad: no
[01:18] <elad> ikonia, still no?
[01:18] <Zappasti> i did
[01:18] <elad> Oh.
[01:18] <smallfoot> veiner, no i just want pretty fonts, and 3d graphics, so i can do stuff like beryl and watch screensavers that dont log
[01:18] <ikonia> correct
[01:18] <Zappasti> my problem has to do with resolution
[01:18] <gravemind> ikonia: oh
[01:18] <TaJMoX> zappasti : edit your  /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:18] <ikonia> smallfoot: well you have to configure it - or wait - its up to you
[01:18] <Ausylo> sn0: 7.04?
[01:18] <jasin> I wont put windows on my laptop, i'm afraid it'll crash and i'll lose all my school work.
[01:19] <crimsun> CrustyPunk: sorry, I'm no help there.  Check the fixresolution factoid.
[01:19] <ikonia> smallfoot: you've said that 10 times and it doesn't change the fact
[01:19] <jasin> Linux never crashes on me, never!
[01:19] <TaJMoX> I never get a response - can someone look at my problem? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=469962
[01:19] <Zappasti> yes i read bout that BUT i dont know the values for my screen
[01:19] <sn0> Ausylo yes, you have dapper which is 6.06 lts
[01:19] <elad> sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
[01:19] <Veinor> Zappasti: And for the love of god, make sure to back that file up first :-P
[01:19] <CrustyPunk> crimsun: okay,
[01:19] <elad> erm
[01:19] <Ausylo> ok yeah
[01:19] <kslc> crimsun: hm I didn't get any errors from the iasl compiler so I really don't know. I'll try and file a bug with the acpi people.
[01:19] <ortega10> fs", and doesn't even let me enter recovery mode... what should i do? (btw, i had some ext3 trouble a few days ago )
[01:19] <Zappasti> they dont figure on manuals and dont find them on the net

[01:19] <raymondjtoth> frank got me working
[01:19] <Veinor> doesn't ctrl-alt-backspace also work for rebooting X?
[01:19] <bruenig> smallfoot, you see there is this thing called a free market. And in a free market different vendors can compete and create products that fill the same role. This creates different products that require different drivers and different configurations to work. Unless you can stop capitalism, you are going to need to do some configuring

[01:20] <Zappasti> i alreadyread a couple of times the fixresolutionhowto
[01:20] <raymondjtoth> xi still here have a q for you
[01:20] <elad> ikonia, I wrote mysql
[01:20] <ikonia> smallfoot: do you have a point or are you trolling ?
[01:20] <raymondjtoth> frank is kde any good
[01:20] <ikonia> elad: then you've not installed mysql server
[01:20] <harry> how do i induce kernel panic?

[01:20] <ikonia> harry: break the kernel

[01:21] <elad> ikonia, I have.

[01:21] <SirKeats> is there a way to power down my hdd after X minutes in ubuntu?
[01:21] <ikonia> smallfoot: this channel is for ubuntu support not random linux nonsense
[01:21] <bluebanana> dawn_chorus, thanks. I was at 1280x1024. but i dropped it down to my native resolution, because it's better to use native resolution, isn't it? I can't switch from 60 Hz to 80 Hz.
[01:21] <smallfoot> IndyGunFreak: KDE4 seems interesting though, hope it doesnt use much memory, hope its fast, i fear it will be very slow
[01:21] <SirKeats> the only option i see is to put the system to sleep and that's not what i want
[01:21] <raymondjtoth> ik im on unbutue
[01:21] <smallfoot> ikonia:  ok
[01:21] <PriceChild> !offtopic > smallfoot
[01:21] <ikonia> elad: then youre either not doing /etc/init.d/mysql start of you've not got it installed
[01:21] <IndyGunFreak> smallfoot: if it follows the pattern of previous kde's
[01:21] <gravemind> everyone: how can I get a uuid for a /dev that is missing one?
[01:21] <elad> ikonia, that directory has many mysql_* files in it, but not mysql.
[01:22] <ikonia> elad: which diretory
[01:22] <raymondjtoth> frank is xi still here?
[01:22] <linuxnub> !uuid
[01:22] <ubotu> To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[01:22] <elad> /etc/init.d/
[01:22] <jasin> People think ubuntu is like windows, I disagree, the file system & structure,  the kernel, the desktops, etc.. are all vastly different.

[01:22] <ubotu> gravemind: please see above
[01:22] <jriachi> hello
[01:22] <ikonia> elad: it should only have a few
[01:22] <Ausylo> sn0: thanks, downloading that one now
[01:22] <elad> Define "few"
[01:22] <Zappasti>  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg gets fereezed
[01:22] <dawn_chorus> bluebanana, native is what's displayed best, in my experience.  forcing higher makes things look weird.
[01:22] <ikonia> elad: 3 or 4
[01:22] <elad> There's much more.
[01:22] <smallfoot> IndyGunFreak: it has lots of new stuff like Plasma, SVG, QT4, etc much new stuff
[01:22] <elad> I did sudo apt-get install mysql-client-5.0 to get it.
[01:22] <ikonia> elad: show me the output of ls -la /etc/init.d in a pastebin
[01:22] <gravemind> PriceChild: linuxnub: that's how I found out it was missing one. blkid doesn't return a uuid for /dev/sda1, it just detects that it is ntfs
[01:22] <dawn_chorus> Zappasti, what do you mean "freezed"?
[01:23] <ikonia> elad: thats mysql "CLIENT" not server

[01:23] <idnzor> hi, i have successfully installed tomcat5.5 on my feisty machine, and have installed apache2. I was wondering is there a way to make jsp pages available under apache
[01:23] <judaz> hey.. could somone help me? i need to configure a DHCP server, but i dont know how to set de listening interface...
[01:23] <bluebanana> it's kinda of strange though to switch to a lower (albeit native) resolution. It's like I lost desktop space (because everything looks zoomed up).
[01:23] <SirKeats> can hdd's be powered down in ubuntu instead of putting whole system to sleep?
[01:23] <idnzor> I have a directory in my home folder called wwwroot which contains my web apps
[01:23] <gravemind> PriceChild: that's not normal, is it?
[01:23] <ikonia> judaz: /etc/default/dhcpd-server
[01:23] <ortega10> when i boot ubuntu, it says "ext3-fs hda3: orphan cleanup on readonly fs", and doesn't even let me enter recovery mode... what should i do? (btw, i had some ext3 trouble a few days ago)
[01:23] <PriceChild> gravemind, not afaik... don't know sorry.
[01:24] <dawn_chorus> bluebanana, yeah, i know what you mean.  time for a widescreen.  :)
[01:24] <ikonia> gravemind: I think its because you've mounted it with fuse
[01:24] <gravemind> PriceChild: alright. I never liked uuid anyway :)
[01:24] <linuxnub> you can try fsck
[01:24] <bluebanana> dawn_chorus, ha
[01:24] <gravemind> ikonia: AHA!
[01:24] <elad> Thanks, ikonia .
[01:24] <sn0> Ausylo your welcome, hopefuly no problems :] 
[01:24] <gravemind> ikonia: what does that mean?
[01:24] <familie> is any CUPS geek in here? need help with printing
[01:24] <familie> getting cupsdAuthorize: Local authentication certificate not found! all time
[01:24] <ikonia> gravemind: truthfully, not sure to be honest, but fuse doesn't treat it like a local disk
[01:25] <ikonia> asI understand it
[01:25] <raymondjtoth> thanks frank
[01:25] <gravemind> ikonia: why is fuse mounting it when fstab says mount it with ntfs-3g
[01:25] <ikonia> ntfs-3g sorry - my typo
[01:25] <kitche> gravemind: ntfs-3g uses fuse anyways
[01:25] <jasin> i dont use ext3 anymore, to slow.
[01:25] <raymondjtoth> frank dose kde look good on ubuntu
[01:25] <bluebanana> how come nvu isn't in repo?
[01:25] <ikonia> hence y typo
[01:25] <dawn_chorus> Zappasti, hmm ... that's weird.  try going to ctrl-alt-f1, stopping gdm and doing it.
[01:25] <ikonia> my
[01:26] <gravemind> kitche, ikonia: ah. so I guess all I have to do change the fstab entry to use the /dev name instead of a uuid
[01:26] <ikonia> gravemind: well, no
[01:26] <ikonia> gravemind: as its mounted already
[01:26] <ikonia> so it won't unmount it if its mounted by a different techniqe

[01:27] <ortega10> when i boot ubuntu, it says "ext3-fs hda3: orphan cleanup on readonly fs", and doesn't even let me enter recovery mode... what should i do? (btw, i had some ext3 trouble a few days ago )
[01:27] <ikonia> gravemind: thats not a mount point
[01:27] <XtypeWriter74> hello. can somebody please help me set vlc player as video player in midnightcommander ? here is my /etc/mc/mc.ext --->  http://sial.org/pbot/25471   when i for example open a .swf file i get this message Error: no "view" mailcap rules found for type "application/x-shockwave-flash"  but vlc alone opens such files
[01:27] <gravemind> ikonia: doesn't mount work either way?
[01:27] <ikonia> gravemind: no
[01:27] <SirKeats> can hdd's be powered down in ubuntu instead of putting whole system to sleep?
[01:27] <HoNgOuRu> hi, I have an ext3 partition just for data, how can I give rw permissions to it with fstab ???
[01:28] <spicypooh> Anyone here using Feisty Fawn 64-bit?  I have not had any actual updates show up in weeks - is there anyway I can tell what are the newest patches?
[01:28] <linuxnub> !fsck | ortega10
[01:28] <ubotu> ortega10: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[01:28] <gravemind> ikonia: sudo umount /media/windows seemed to work : )
[01:28] <HoNgOuRu> hi, I have an ext3 partition just for data, how can I give rw permissions to it with fstab ???  for all the users of my system?
[01:28] <gravemind> ikonia: now I'll try changing fstab
[01:28] <ikonia> gravemind: I thought thats what you said you'd done
[01:28] <jasin> windows, eck ..
[01:28] <gravemind> ikonia: I right clicked on the desktop icon and chose unmount
[01:28] <ikonia> ahhhh
[01:28] <jasin> why do you guys still use windows?
[01:28] <ortega10> linuxnub: the problem is i can't even access to the console, so i can't run fsck manually
[01:28] <gravemind> jasin: GAMES
[01:29] <HoNgOuRu> hi, I have an ext3 partition just for data, how can I give rw permissions to it with fstab ???  for all the users of my system?
[01:29] <jasin> and dont say gaming, thats a lame excuse
[01:29] <ikonia> jasin: some people don't have a choice, some like it better
[01:29] <gravemind> jasin: not for me
[01:29] <linuxnub> what about livecd
[01:29] <TaJMoX> ortega10 : alt-f2    xterm
[01:29] <ikonia> jasin: leave people to make their own choice
[01:29] <HoNgOuRu> help guys
[01:29] <HardDisk> exactly.
[01:29] <HoNgOuRu> hi, I have an ext3 partition just for data, how can I give rw permissions to it with fstab ???  for all the users of my system?
[01:29] <HardDisk> all OS's have their uses.
[01:29] <ortega10> TaJMoX: the system doesn't boot... it stops in the middle of the process, with the error message i gave before
[01:29] <jasin> get a ps3  or wii, much better for gaming.
[01:29] <HardDisk> my grandmother uses windows and that's fine by her.
[01:29] <kitche> jasin: maybe for work or school prehaps
[01:29] <TaJMoX> jasin : a large % of linux users have a windows partition for gaming.   certainly they all cant be lamers
[01:30] <linuxnub> !permissions
[01:30] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[01:30] <gravemind> jasin: I haven't used it in a while though, after I stopped playing supreme commander for the time being
[01:30] <HardDisk> jasin, some countries still dont have those yet.
[01:30] <TaJMoX> ortega10 : sorry i missed the message - have you tried recovery mode?
[01:30] <SuperQ> TaJMoX: yea, I keep a wintendo around
[01:30] <HoNgOuRu> yeah..thanks...
[01:30] <SuperQ> TaJMoX: it stays off most of the time tho
[01:30] <ortega10> TaJMoX: it doesn't get me to recovery mode either
[01:30] <dawn_chorus> HoNgOuRu, to be sure you get exactly what you need, you may want to refer to the documentation.  man fstab
[01:30] <jasin> saying you cant play game on linux is a myth, its one of those ole wise tales.
[01:30] <ortega10> it says "ext3-fs hda3: orphan cleanup on readonly fs", and doesn't even let me enter recovery mode...
[01:30] <kitche> jasin: I need windows for college since most of my programming stuff deals with window stuff
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> jasin: well, linux doesn't do as well with games, as MS does
[01:31] <Pelo> jasin,  old wive's tale
[01:31] <HardDisk> no one said you cant play games on nix, some games just refuse to play on it that's all, or at least not as good as it should.
[01:31] <linuxnub> lol what a bunch of nonsense Indy
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> its more the companies don't write them for Linux, than Linux can't do it.
[01:31] <HoNgOuRu> I want to have a partition just for data, its filesystem is ext3, I wannit for download stuff and all that, but for every user
[01:31] <AnRkey> HoNgOuRu, paste your /etc/fstab to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org  and send me the link
[01:31] <HoNgOuRu> thx
[01:32] <linuxnub> i can run any windows based game in linux i have ever tried
[01:32] <m1r> ikonia , can i PM you ?
[01:32] <familie> Cant anybody help me print my file???

[01:32] <TaJMoX> superq does it run new games?
[01:32] <linuxnub> which includes Dark age of Camelot, world or warcraft, Oblivion, and many many others
[01:32] <jasin> you can play, quake, half life, doom,etc.. on linux, all without emulation.
[01:32] <Pelo> familie, did you setup your printer ?
[01:32] <HardDisk> "...you have tried" so I suppose halo 3 will work. :)
[01:32] <ikonia> m1r: no thnks
[01:32] <AnRkey> HoNgOuRu, gimme a sec
[01:32] <m1r> kk
[01:33] <jasin> You guys are just ignorant.
[01:33] <HoNgOuRu> jasin but battlefield 2 project reality u CANT!
[01:33] <familie> Pelo: yes. and test pages work, printing out of firefox, too
[01:33] <TaJMoX> jasin : those are old games - what about people who have $300 graphics cards and want to play a decent looking game?
[01:33] <TaJMoX> jasin : not everyone is into retro
[01:33] <AnRkey> HoNgOuRu, ls -ah /media
[01:33] <bruenig> familie, can you open the pdf in anything?
[01:33] <familie> Pelo: but i just accidently killed my cups demon i think
[01:33] <Pelo> familie, what application are  you trying to print from that doesn't work ?
[01:33] <HardDisk> why dont you leave them alone and choose what they want instad of dictating.
[01:33] <kkathman> actually this whole discussion about games is offtopic and should be taken there
[01:33] <SuperQ> TaJMoX: Well, I don't run too many games.. there are one or two doze apps that I just havn't been bothered to try getting to work in linux
[01:33] <linuxnub> Taj does Oblivion count?
[01:33] <jasin> Taj, maybe, but there still in the top 20 of all games played.
[01:33] <HardDisk> demo it to them sure and then let them choose.
[01:33] <AnRkey> HoNgOuRu, sorry, correction ls -al /media
[01:34] <Pelo> familie, restart your computer and try again then
[01:34] <HoNgOuRu> ok
[01:34] <linuxnub> Oblivion = the most cutting edge game on the market now
[01:34] <gravemind> ikonia: does gparted require ntfs drivers, and fail if ntfs-3g is used, or something
[01:34] <familie> Pelo: I tried KDPF evince and another pdf program, all dont want to print. The job is directly stopped and not resumbale
[01:34] <bruenig> restart? /etc/init.d/cups start
[01:34] <AnRkey> been on windows server earlier today :(
[01:34] <linuxnub> runs flawlessly for me in linux
[01:34] <SuperQ> TaJMoX: I might eventualy buy a copy of vmware, or upgrade the machine so I can run windows in linux kernel VM
[01:34] <HoNgOuRu> cdrom  cdrom0  floppy  floppy0  .hal-mtab  .hal-mtab-lock  sda5  sda8
[01:34] <HardDisk> SuperQ no need, vmware server is free.
[01:34] <linuxnub> not ubuntu tho cant get it to work in ubuntu
[01:34] <ortega10> when i boot ubuntu, it says "ext3-fs hda3: orphan cleanup on readonly fs", and doesn't even let me enter recovery mode... what should i do? (btw, i had some ext3 trouble a few days ago )
[01:34] <jasin> Ea has a battelfield 2 linux server.
[01:34] <Pelo> familie,  you are using kubuntu ?  maybe you should try asking in #kubuntu
[01:35] <mbi033> test
[01:35] <TaJMoX> linuxnub : yes that counts for one.   and maybe a couple more.
[01:35] <linuxnub> all those games run seamlessly on my Sabayon install :)
[01:35] <SuperQ> HardDisk: don't you still need to buy something to make the images?
[01:35] <HardDisk> :)
[01:35] <familie> Pelo: no i use normal ubuntu latest version all update
[01:35] <linuxnub> Sabayon is the big dog for that kinda thing
[01:35] <familie> gon' restart ttyl
[01:35] <SuperQ> I suppose there is a Windows XP vmware image torrent out there somewhere
[01:35] <HardDisk> you mean a windows licence? well you figure that out
[01:35] <SuperQ> HardDisk: no.. the vmware image
[01:35] <jrib> SuperQ: www.easyvmx.com
[01:35] <HardDisk> yea its out there.
[01:35] <linuxnub> Source based = vastly superior
[01:35] <Dr_willis> and no its not legal. :)
[01:36] <zacchaeus> hey guys, does ubuntu have something equivalent to kcron out of the box?
[01:36] <Dr_willis> heh..
[01:36] <HardDisk> virtualbox is really good too
[01:36] <kronoman> hi. a girl that is friend of mine recently installed Windows XP , but also has a ubuntu partition ; grub don't shows anymore, how she can add it again?
[01:36] <SuperQ> jrib: oh.. that's kinda neat
[01:36] <HoNgOuRu> ....
[01:36] <Dr_willis> Ive had issues with Virtual Box and Live cd's :(
[01:36] <AnRkey> HoNgOuRu, what does ls -al /media show you?
[01:36] <Pelo> familie,  in evince , look in files > printer properties or something like that , make sure the printer is properly selected, and check the various other settings,   I realy can'T help you much beyond that,  try the forum if no one else here can help
[01:36] <TaJMoX> !grub | kronoman
[01:36] <ubotu> kronoman: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[01:36] <kronoman> thanks TaJMoX
[01:36] <gravemind> does anybody know if gparted works with ntfs-3g (kitche I'm looking in your direction)
[01:36] <jasin> Taj, those are hardly retro, retro is mario, donkey kong, tetris, etc...
[01:37] <IndyGunFreak> gravemind: i'm pretty sure it does.
[01:37] <TaJMoX> jasin : quake, doom, heretic, etc, they are at least 3 generations ago
[01:37] <gravemind> that eliminates one source of error then
[01:37] <TaJMoX> jasin : not even 3d accelerated
[01:37] <Dr_willis> doom was a earlier gen then quake. :)
[01:37] <Pelo> gravemind,  gparted is independent of nfts-3g , it will never let you create a ntfs partition,  but it will still let you resize and move one
[01:37] <gravemind> the error I'm getting is Warning: Unable to read the contents of this filesystem! Because of this some operations may be unavailable. Did you install the correct plugin for this filesystem?
[01:38] <kitche> !offtopic | TaJMoX, jasin,

[01:38] <linuxnub> Taj believe me, you can get any of the latest and greatest games on the market today running better in linux than in windows
[01:38] <spicypooh> Has anyone seen any updates for 7.04 64-bit lately?  I notice the i386 is up to a later kernel rev but amd64 isn't.
[01:38] <Pelo> familie, what is that ?
[01:38] <linuxnub> i know because i currently do run them
[01:38] <linuxnub> and have posted howto's for them
[01:38] <familie> Pelo: that is what the printer window tells me about my job
[01:38] <Dr_willis> I still havent gotten "Lord Of the Rings Online" Working with Wine/cedega yet

[01:40] <zacchaeus> hey guys, does ubuntu have something equivalent to kcron out of the box?
[01:40] <familie> Pelo: but i need this pdf for tomorrow, we got 1.30 am
[01:40] <gravemind> linuxnub: #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:40] <jasin> Taj, 3 generations old is hardly old, especially when their still in the top 20 for the most played games and the operating system you play them on is 5 generations even older then that.
[01:40] <linuxnub> #ubuntu-offtopic  ??
[01:40] <EADG_> Monteh: try slrn
[01:40] <Pelo> familie,  you can open pdf files in OO I believe,  try it

[01:45] <cjpro> I just installed a fresh 7.10 installation and attempted to set up PHP5 and MySQL 5.  Yet, when I run phpinfo(), it does not mention MySQL
[01:45] <Pelo> familie,  looks like you are going to need to compile it from source ,  best of luck
[01:46] <cjpro> I have installed php5-mysql too

[01:48] <familie> Pelo: nope, there's an INSTALL script
[01:48] <jasin> It says "development release" on the ubuntu site.
[01:48] <Pozaro> sup

[01:48] <bruenig> INSTALL is not a script generally it is a readme sort of thing
[01:48] <ortega10> when i boot ubuntu, it says "ext3-fs hda3: orphan cleanup on readonly fs", and doesn't even let me enter recovery mode... what should i do? (btw, i had some ext3 trouble a few days ago)

[01:50] <lengend> Hello, i have a problem, when i did the partition with linux it made my windows xp size 60gb but i wanted it to be 90gb how can i change it?
[01:50] <Pozaro> and i need the java updates
[01:50] <bruenig> ned, I would get the azureus from azureus stick it in /opt and give your user rw permissions on it
[01:50] <jasin> Oh, so I cant talk about ubuntu in #ubuntu? man, thats just silly.
[01:50] <Pelo> familie,  it works for me I don't know what your problem is

[01:50] <lengend> but, i have a dual boot with xp mce and ubuntu 7.10

[01:51] <rollerskatejamms> you can try alien though
[01:51] <Dr_willis> Pozaro,  its best to use deb files on ubuntu. RPM and alien can break things badly
[01:51] <PriceChild> Pozaro, we don't use rpms :)
[01:51] <bruenig> Pozaro, not advised
[01:51] <lengend> Nutubuntu, i'll worry about that later then if its easy ok?
[01:51] <Pozaro> thanks

[01:52] <ned> thx
[01:52] <Pozaro> updaes for my web browser mozila
[01:52] <Pelo> familie,  most likely it's just a little thing , you just need to figure out what and you can'T do that when you are under the gun
[01:52] <IndyGunFreak> !flash

[01:52] <PriceChild> Pozaro, see the pm from ubotu :)
[01:53] <lengend> i have the PRO/Wireless 3945ABG
[01:53] <lengend> Intel*
[01:53] <Monteh> how do i load the registry editor thing on here, i want to sort the desktop effects cube problem out
[01:53] <Nutubuntu> lengend - I can *spell* wireless; that's about all I know about it :) -- anyone?
[01:53] <bruenig> lengend, that card is supported
[01:53] <Pozaro> thnks
[01:53] <Pozaro> about to try it now
[01:53] <marcin_ant> hi all
[01:53] <kitche> Monteh: there is no registry editor on linux
[01:53] <lengend> yes i already checked, it reconizes it when i typed sudo lshw -C network
[01:53] <Pelo> Monteh, use synaptic and search for compiz   there is a compiz manager in there somewhere
[01:54] <lengend> but when i type sudo apt-get network-manager, it says invalid
[01:54] <Pelo> Monteh,  #ubuntu-effects is a better place to get help with the cube and such
[01:54] <PriceChild> lengend, sudo apt-get install
[01:54] <Pozaro> ok it says flash plugin in has no initial candidate
[01:54] <lengend> so it will install the adaptar?
[01:54] <bruenig> lengend, that has nothing to do with your card, apt-get installs packages, it doesn't configure wireless cards, it is network-manager-gnome by the way
[01:54] <pippit> so anyone want to help a complete ubuntu noob?
[01:54] <marcin_ant> short question - I got user account on ubuntu and apache2 running - I want to upload files to /var/www to host them with apache 2 but unfortunately I cannot because I don't have privileges - any advice/idea/help?
[01:55] <lengend> ohh ok thank you, will it manage my wireless after?
[01:55] <Pelo> pippit,  we need to know hyour problem first
[01:55] <Nutubuntu> !ask
[01:55] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:55] <bruenig> lengend, it is not an adapter, it is a graphical way to switch between different networks
[01:55] <lengend> i see, so after i install the packages, and the stuff my wireless will work?
[01:55] <pippit> how do i get audacious installed & running?
[01:56] <Pelo> pippit,  http://cutlersoftware.com/ubuntuinstall/
[01:56] <new2linx> heello?
[01:56] <bruenig> lengend, maybe, not sure on ubuntu's default support, you should already be able to use your wireless card
[01:56] <cjpro> Nevermind on my problem.  Turned out the Apache Server had to be restarted
[01:56] <new2linx> this is sweet!
[01:56] <diabolix> anyone know how you go about getting a package into the repositories?
[01:56] <pike_> new2linx: hi. welcome
[01:56] <ihateusernames> JScript = Java Script right?
[01:56] <lengend> i see it in the network, but won't connect
[01:56] <new2linx> thanks, I am very new to irc so not sure how to direct a statement at some1
[01:56] <new2linx> pike_
[01:57] <bruenig> diabolix, look up revu in the repositories, it is a long process and is complex and ridiculous I think
[01:57] <bruenig> diabolix, revu in the wiki, not repositories
[01:57] <kranol> whats the name of the program that ubuntu has by default that is used to extract bz files?
[01:57] <kranol> (the GUI one)
[01:57] <new2linx> isn't it gzip
[01:57] <bruenig> kranol, bunzip
[01:57] <pike_> new2linx: basically if you are speaking with someone use their name at the begining of the statement. but if you have a quesiton just ask the channel in general and someone will respond
[01:57] <bruenig> oh gui
[01:57] <bruenig> file-roller?
[01:57] <lengend> ok thank you, brb going to go on linux
[01:57] <kranol> bruenig, ty
[01:57] <Pelo> new2linx, just state the name of the person you are talking to in each line , they will light up for them , but first you need to ask a quesiton
[01:57] <new2linx> OH dah, bunzip, i thought tar could do that with the b option though?
[01:57] <IndyGunFreak> new2linx: type the first few letters of a persons name, then hit tab, and it should auto complete their name(or give you a list of names that have those first letters, in that event write more letters), then write your message, and it will highlight it to the person you're sending it to.
[01:58] <bruenig> new2linx, needs to be a bunzipped tarball, you can bunzip something without tarring it
[01:58] <new2linx> pike_: sweet! thanks
[01:58] <new2linx> IndyGunFreak: sweet, thanks.
[01:58] <new2linx> i just figureed out how to get this working with gaim so I thought I'd come and check it out.
[01:59] <new2linx> bruenig: got it, thanx
[01:59] <IndyGunFreak> new2linx: lol, first lesson, use an iRC client..lol
[01:59] <KAI_Tite> xd
[01:59] <KAI_Tite> lol

[02:00] <new2linx> yeah, i was told that. i have used xchat before.
[02:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about basics - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:00] <TaJMoX> oh ubotu someone's gotta teach you some basic linux tutorial url's
[02:00] <Pelo> TaJMoX, what do you need to know ?
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> new2linx: i'd suggest it over gaim...
[02:00] <pike_> |-David-|: im assuming you installed the nvidia-legacy driver?
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> i'd suggest anything over gaim(for IRC that is)
[02:00] <new2linx> Pelo: come on, you're joking right?

[02:00] <Pelo> new-ubuntu-user,  donT, talk to me
[02:00] <|-David-|> I attempted to, and it said it worked...
[02:00] <TaJMoX> pelo - i want ubotu to know it - i dont need it - others do
[02:00] <kitche> TaJMoX: it does you used the wrong keyword
[02:00] <ned> new2linx: i'm using xchat-gnome, it's modified for gnome

[02:01] <thechris> i need a movie player that works fully in ubuntu.  the default "movie player" doesn't sync sound.
[02:01] <TaJMoX> !info vlc
[02:01] <ubotu> vlc: multimedia player and streamer. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.6.release-0ubuntu4 (feisty), package size 1131 kB, installed size 3192 kB
[02:01] <new2linx> ned: thanks for the tip
[02:01] <pike_> |-David-|: i think the next command is sudo nvidia-xconfig to set it up. id just 'grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf' and see what driver it is youre using currently. does vesa not work either?
[02:01] <kitche> thechris: that's because your codecs are messed up most likely
[02:01] <ned> new2linx: no problem :)
[02:02] <thechris> kitche: how do i fix this?
[02:02] <TaJMoX> thechris - gstreamer-properties
[02:02] <pike_> thechris: mplayer is my favorite but vlc has advantage of not having to chase codecs down
[02:02] <|-David-|> well, my issue is that I can't get into ubuntu when I have the NVIDIA card in
[02:02] <IndyGunFreak> Pelo: why the anger towards new2linx?..lol
[02:02] <ihateusernames> whats the right latest Java Runtime Environment and where do I get it from?

[02:09] <new2linx> gotta go. preparing for Soprano's at 8 central time
[02:09] <kitche> Phocion: most of the install programs use dpkg underneath anyways
[02:09] <dhuv> hello all
[02:10] <Ryan__> how do I install lmsensors so it all works with my laptop so it doesnt overheat anymore lol
[02:10] <lengend> hello, i have the Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG and i can't get it to work in ubuntu, can someone help me?
[02:10] <dhuv> I am using kubuntu and by default an application called Power Manager was installed so I can view and configure the suspend and hibernate settings
[02:11] <mao> why did the server install for feisty detect my hdd as sda when it is hda
[02:11] <dhuv> Ryan__: you can install X Sensors app
[02:12] <dhuv> this should install lm-sensors
[02:12] <kitche> mao: libata prehaps
[02:12] <dhuv> lengend: what do you mean not working, what have you tried?
[02:12] <Ryan__> ok is that in the repos?
[02:12] <lengend> i have tried, "sudo apt-get install"
[02:12] <mao> kitche, so it automatically choses that?
[02:12] <lengend> sudo apt-get network-manager-gnome
[02:12] <dhuv> Ryan__: lm_sensors should be
[02:12] <kitche> mao: yeah at least I think the server kernel has libata in it
[02:13] <lengend> it just won't connect to the internet i don't know whats the problem the card is seen
[02:13] <dhuv> go to add remove packages and search for sensors
[02:13] <Ryan__> its in synaptic or add and remove?
[02:13] <mao> kitche, so if its not an sda it will fail the install because it has that auto-enabled
[02:13] <Nutubuntu> lengend - sudo apt-get install <the package> ... e.g., sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome ... is that what you've done?
[02:13] <symbiote> bash: ./configure: No such file or directory    why does ./configure never work for me
[02:13] <dhuv> Ryan__: I am sorry, that should be synaptic
[02:13] <gravemind> hey yalls, can fsck do ntfs?
[02:13] <lengend> i just typed in sudo apt-get install
[02:13] <symbiote> im in the right folder
[02:13] <lengend> no package number or anything
[02:13] <kitche> symbiote: umm does the folder have configurre in it?
[02:13] <dhuv> lengend: you need to tell it what to install
[02:14] <lengend> ohh, sorry i never got wireless to work on ubuntu before, so what package do i say?
[02:14] <Ryan__> so once I install it it will monitor all my temperatures automatically?
[02:14] <symbiote> the instruicttions say to use configure lol umm lemme see..
[02:14] <dhuv> lengend: type "sudo /sbin/ifconfig -a" into a terminal and let me know if you see eth0 and eth1
[02:14] <Ryan__> will it turn on fans at the right times like windows?
[02:14] <pike_> legion_nux: typically you look for the package with a  apt-cache search something. it will return a list of packages that have the word something in em and then you apt-get install packagename
[02:14] <Nutubuntu> lengend - let's take that apart. sudo gives you the necessary rights ... apt-get install tells apt-get you want to install something ... and the package you want to install comes next
[02:15] <pike_> legion_nux: using sudo of course
[02:15] <lengend> i see eth0, eth1 and lo
[02:15] <dhuv> Ryan__: the lm_sensor package is the base to start monitoring that stuff, you can get other apps which use lm_sensors to display the information
[02:15] <symbiote> theres no configure anywhere.. how the hell are we suppost to install it lol
[02:15] <lengend> it doesn't see WLAN
[02:15] <symbiote> i looked threw all teh folders in there
[02:15] <Ryan__> ok what would those packages be?
[02:15] <Ryan__> any good ones out there?
[02:15] <ihateusernames> can someone please help me get JSRE
[02:16] <Nutubuntu> Ryan__ -  ksensors, for one
[02:16] <kitche> symbiote: what are you trying to compile
[02:16] <Ryan__> will it work in gnome?
[02:16] <dhuv> Ryan__: X Sensors would be one of those, you can search for other packages that use lm_sensors
[02:16] <diabolix> does anyone know how to make deskbar only use google for websearch?
[02:16] <dhuv> Ryan__: you should look for gnome specific apps
[02:16] <Ryan__> ok
[02:16] <dhuv> lengend: where are you checking for wlan
[02:17] <Ryan__> X sensors is one?
[02:17] <alpinestar> are there any other voices you can add to festival
[02:17] <alpinestar> like AT&T Mike
[02:17] <mao> kitche, if wha ti said is true, since my install fail because of it, then i would consider that a bug in the server install, right?
[02:17] <Nutubuntu> Ryan__ -  yes, although I'd second what dhuv said ... for some reason I thought you were running kubuntu
[02:17] <lengend> i type sudo /sbin/ifconfig -a it shows eth0 eth1 and lo
[02:17] <dhuv> I am running kubuntu
[02:17] <dhuv> brb
[02:17] <alpinestar> so
[02:17] <Nutubuntu> <-- mixed up, me
[02:17] <Cybodog> hey all, got a strange one, trying to run the citrix install script:  bash: ./setupwfc:  /bin/sh: bad interperter:  Permission denied
[02:17] <Soap> how well can/does kpowersave work with gnome?
[02:18] <symbiote> PodsBlitz a ipod song remover program :D the site says it can be installed on linux using the source files.. yet no install instructions..
[02:18] <symbiote> heres teh site http://dietrich.cx/wiki/Development/PodsBlitz
[02:18] <gravemind> hey, how do I fix the error that synaptic is not authenticated
[02:18] <pike_> Cybodog: try bash setupwfc for kicks
[02:18] <Cybodog> pike_, will do
[02:18] <kitche> mao: might not be a bug they are still working on the bugs out with libata I believe in ubuntu to make it easier for users to use
[02:18] <pike_> Cybodog: /bin/sh is linked to dash now and that can cause problems occationally
[02:19] <mao> kitche, alright then. thanks
[02:19] <Cybodog> pike_ that worked on ubuntu64, but not on I386, strange
[02:19] <Cybodog> the script now runs but errors out
[02:19] <Cybodog> what was sh tied to?
[02:20] <symbiote> i also tryed putting teh jar file on teh ipod and double clicking it like it says on that freshmeat site but it just opens archive manager lol..
[02:20] <Ryan__> ok does this utility start fans if the temperature is too high, or does it just let me view the temperatures?
[02:21] <symbiote> isnt jar for java? wouldnt java run fine ont his Ill trys oemthign else.. lets see how do u set file opening preferences..
[02:21] <kitche> mao: even for advance users libata is a bit confusing
[02:21] <pike_> Cybodog: dash. scripts really should point to /usr/bin/bash but bash isnt always in same location. so sometimes people get lazy and use /bin/sh
[02:21] <pike_> Cybodog: that is if they need bash they should
[02:22] <Cybodog> pike_ looking at my x64 install and I will mirror the symlink to match, that works.
[02:22] <luddite> hey all, i'm having some issues with installing nvidia
[02:22] <kitche> symbiote: your in src right?
[02:22] <alpinestar> anyone knows how to get human voices on festival engine
[02:23] <Ryan__> ok I installed x Sensors but Im not sure how to use it and I've looked for some documentation on it and foun none
[02:23] <lengend> who can help me?
[02:23] <Nutubuntu> Where does vmware put its virtual machines? Is it configurable, and is there a "best" location?
[02:24] <sn0> Ryan__ lm-sensors ?
[02:24] <Frogzoo> Nutubuntu: wherever you like, & wherever you have >5gig spare
[02:24] <Ryan__> yea I installed lm-sensors too with X sensors so it can be utilized
[02:25] <symbiote> heres what it looks like root@symbiote:~/Desktop/PodsBlitz/src# ./configure
[02:25] <symbiote> bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
[02:25] <icf7> Nutubuntu: Configurable, default is /var/lib/vmware/Virtual Machines or similar.
[02:25] <Nutubuntu> Frogzoo, icf7 - thanks!
[02:25] <alpinestar> i got login so far
[02:25] <Ryan__> but now Im wondering must I open the utility to check it?, or does it work automatically somehow?
[02:25] <alpinestar> its symbioe
[02:25] <alpinestar> symbiote
[02:25] <sn0> Ryan__ first of all you need to run sudo sensors-detect to find the sensors on your system
[02:25] <alpinestar> let's find the password
[02:25] <|-David-|> what's the command to install the nvidia legacy drivers?
[02:25] <symbiote> probably doing soemthing stupid
[02:26] <sn0> then it will prompt to add the correct modules to /etc/modules , so on boot the sensors-applet in gnome should display temps etc, but its afront end for the 'sensors' program that reads the info
[02:26] <c_> Can some one please explain what arrays are in bash to me?
[02:26] <Cybodog> script does not work, any ideas on why I386 is non-functional or on how I can get the install script to work?
[02:26] <m1r> i made symlink /var/www/sitename /home/ftp/sitename then used mount --bind /var/www/sitename /home/ftp/sitename, but after every reboot files dont show in /home/ftp/sitename, where did i go wrong ?

[02:28] <Cybodog> cebu2007, same OS
[02:28] <Cybodog> diff window manager is all
[02:28] <symbiote> mabey ill just use wine to run it if taht will even work
[02:28] <kitche> cebu2007: well since they are the same underlying os you can install one and then bring the other desktop environment into that
[02:28] <sn0> Ryan__ there might be ubuntu specific information on the ubuntuforums, but http://www.lm-sensors.org/ has everything you need
[02:29] <cebu2007> how will i do that
[02:29] <|-David-|> alright, I'm going to give the card a try now
[02:29] <Ryan__> kk thank you
[02:29] <gamecheif> yo man
[02:29] <Cybodog> why does everybody type kk for ok?
[02:29] <Frogzoo> cebu2007: install ubuntu, then install kde
[02:29] <gamecheif> i accidently deleted my windows
[02:29] <pike_> cebu2007: install ubuntu then sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop xubuntu-desktop
[02:29] <sn0> just be sure to install from ubuntu sources, and not the lmsensors website :)
[02:29] <gamecheif> i know no one who has a disc and i need to know what to do
[02:29] <pike_> cebu2007: at login screen you can click sessions button and login to whichever you like
[02:29] <cebu2007> this will not overwrite the ubuntu?
[02:30] <symbiote> gamecheif tahts wickked man.. I "accidentally did too ;);)
[02:30] <gamecheif> yeah man
[02:30] <Cybodog> so:  How do I make my citrix install script setupwfc work with my i386 system?

[02:30] <gamecheif> i have
[02:30] <gamecheif> the boot disc
[02:30] <kitche> gamecheif: umm nothing really unless you can recover the partition
[02:30] <pike_> cebu2007: no kubuntu is same as ubuntu except for the gui environment you can have kde gnome and whatever on same box
[02:30] <gamecheif> it made the partcian
[02:30] <gamecheif> all i need is a copy of windows

[02:30] <Cybodog> cebu2007, I run ubuntu and use xfce4
[02:30] <Ryan__> its happened each time I play the game, I hope lm-sensors can change the fans so that they turn on
[02:30] <gamecheif> yeah i do

[02:35] <kitche> MacDrunk_: yes you need to setup a guest account if you don't want it to ask you
[02:35] <super-6-1> athroms loves linux

[02:35] <MacDrunk_> i just instal swat
[02:35] <MacDrunk_> how o make it work
[02:35] <MacDrunk_> lol
[02:35] <joseph> I presume everyone here is familiar with the network monitor on the panel? The one that allows you to connect to various wireless networks? I accidentally deleted it, and while trying to add a replacement network monitor applet, it only treats my wireless connection as a wired connection (eth1).
[02:35] <Gnea> MacDrunk_: read those websites
[02:35] <Cybodog> MacDrunk_, what is the security?
[02:35] <MacDrunk_> ok
[02:35] <super-6-1> so Cybodog when you get done can you hep me out?
[02:35] <MacDrunk_> i will
[02:35] <gamecheif> anyone use xbc with linux
[02:35] <Gnea> MacDrunk_: try #samba too
[02:36] <spasticteapot> I are is = Joseph.
[02:36] <Cybodog> super-6-1, most software has a readme or install txt.
[02:36] <super-6-1> i dont get that well
[02:36] <m1r> i made symlink /var/www/sitename /home/ftp/sitename then used mount --bind /var/www/sitename /home/ftp/sitename, but after every reboot files dont show in /home/ftp/sitename, where did i go wrong ?
[02:36] <symbiote> so i guess I might as well give up on trying to compile that ipod appy.. no configure file.. what am i to do..
[02:36] <cebu2007> pike i got invalid ops when typing sudo install kubuntu
[02:36] <cebu2007> i got live cd
[02:37] <Gnea> joseaa: i think there's a way to reconfigure it to point to wlan0 (or whatever the wifi interface is) but i don't have the standard desktop running right now
[02:37] <Gnea> spasticteapot: ^^^
[02:37] <Horrendus01> Alright, I know alot of people are here looking for help, and alot of others are answering their questions so hopefully there's someone free enough to help me too
[02:37] <pike_> cebu2007: youll want to install ubuntu first. then reboot into your new os. then open a terminal and type sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[02:37] <Nutubuntu> !ask > Horrendus01
[02:37] <kitche> symbiote: umm compile it by going into the src direct and running javac PodBlitz.java
[02:37] <spasticteapot> Gnea: Fnord.
[02:37] <Gnea> Horrendus01: only if you tell us what your problem is.
[02:37] <spasticteapot> Okay, new question: How can I rename eth1 as wlan0?
[02:38] <Horrendus01> I've got a Wacom tablet I'd like to set up to work correctly with ubuntu, anyone have any experience with this?
[02:38] <cebu2007> how about logout then open a terminal
[02:38] <bruenig> spasticteapot, don't think you can, what is the point anyways in doing that
[02:38] <symbiote> oh heyy i found out I can use reiserfsck --fix-fixable to fix my harddrive but it says cannot check harddrive write permissions enabled.. or soemthing liek that
[02:38] <symbiote> I tryed it in recovery mode..a nd it terminal..
[02:38] <symbiote> oh yeah illt ry taht lol
[02:38] <super-6-1> i cant get in to any directory

[02:39] <Horrendus01> sn0 It works, but the buttons do not work correctly, and there is no way to gconfigure them to

[02:41] <Cybodog> Hey, I found my issue with the citrix install script:  had to copy to /root and run as su -
[02:41] <Cybodog> go figure
[02:41] <Cybodog> strange
[02:42] <symbiote> haha javac is in a bunch of different things but not in a single file by itself.. so ill download Kaffe.. makes me wanna have coffee
[02:42] <wladston> Gnea: oh, it did ... sorry :)
[02:42] <spasticteapot> jmg: Normally, you can just click on the icon and select a wireless network.
[02:42] <Cybodog> fyi, in the event some one else shows up with that issue.
[02:42] <Cybodog> it works in x64, but not in I386 unbuntu with a simple sudo su
[02:42] <Gnea> Kaitlyn2004: what sort of error is it giving, exactly?
[02:42] <symbiote> hasha its a virtual machine neatt..
[02:42] <Kaitlyn2004> Gnea: It just shows failed in red
[02:42] <Kaitlyn2004> while everything else shows OK
[02:43] <Kaitlyn2004> from what I see not from the console, it loads VERY slowly, and takes FOREVER to show the login screen, which I can't get past.. and it's EXTREMELY laggy
[02:43] <kitche> symbiote: think podblitz was made with Sun's java
[02:43] <Gnea> Kaitlyn2004: mkay, if you open a root terminal and then do a /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon restart  (or something similar) do you get any more information?
[02:43] <Kaitlyn2004> lemme start it up...

[02:44] <pi3> I can't browse the web for example
[02:44] <kitche> !ipv6 | pi3 this might be why
[02:44] <ubotu> pi3 this might be why: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[02:44] <Frogzoo> MinceR: it should go on the kernel line
[02:44] <pi3> neither I can ping
[02:44] <kitche> symbiote: not really it was made from scratch
[02:44] <puff> Does this mean that a) something's gone wacky with the repository servers for feisty or b) something's messed up on my box?
[02:45] <symbiote> mabey its better !
[02:45] <pi3> hey kitche, I can't surf :s

[02:46] <kitche> terrestre: what do you mean by mono do you mean for programming or just for running a program
[02:46] <Frogzoo> MinceR: sounds right, don't use the live cd myself

[02:47] <Frogzoo> kitche: ?
[02:47] <Gnea> yeah

[02:49] <Gnea> Canti: procinfo
[02:49] <dhuv> pi3: it can be dns
[02:49] <puff> If you're trying out the open source, non-sun java stuff, more power to you, let me know how it turns out.  IF you want to actually et stuff done, AFAIK you're dozens of times better off just using the suns tbeuff.
[02:50] <Kaitlyn2004> gnez it went to the next line.. like its still processing it
[02:50] <Kaitlyn2004> duno why it would take so long :S

[02:50] <lengend> yes
[02:50] <lengend> i have tried everything
[02:50] <pi3> dhuv: yes i can
[02:50] <puff> So nobody has any thoguhts on the "untrusted source" warning?
[02:51] <dhuv> pi3: its dns then

[02:51] <Gnea> Kaitlyn2004: should be fine then, might need to tweak it to use different bootup arguments tho
[02:51] <kitche> puff: since FreeBSD actually has a port for sun java but haven't tried it myself yet since I don't do java programming anymore really
[02:51] <lengend> like its frustrating you can't get internet
[02:51] <cebu2007> somebody knows how to install live cd kubuntu feisty without overwriting ubuntu feisty?
[02:51] <Gnea> Kaitlyn2004: sounds like a hardware issue

[02:54] <Frogzoo> gamecheif: you can run from the live cd without instaling
[02:54] <dhuv> lengend: you are using commands? like "iwconfig eth1 essid somenetwork ap auto"?
[02:54] <lengend> nope i haven't tried those
[02:54] <Gnea> Kaitlyn2004: click on 'applications' and it should lay it all out :)

[02:57] <Gnea> PyroSama: are you familiar with the man command?  man procinfo
[02:57] <MacDrunk_> cybodog are u there

[02:58] <sn0> noproblem digin4
[02:58] <puff> dhuv: I haven't really found those apps useful;  there are too many hotspots in my area, when I use the GUI wifi apps they tend to latch onto the wrong hotspot.
[02:58] <bluefox83> how do you add a podcast to amarok from firefox?
[02:58] <Louie24707> A music messaging session has been requested. Please click the MM icon to accept.
[02:58] <puff> dhuv: The most irritating being the starbucks/tmobile, which then redirects me to their credit card gateway.
[02:58] <Nutubuntu> pi3 ... I had the wrong IP addy; it is 208.67.222.222 or 208.67.220.220
[02:58] <PyroSama> Gnea: Ah ok there is more to it than I realized
[02:58] <PyroSama> Gnea: Thank you :)
[02:59] <dhuv> puff: you can tell them to connect to a certain network

[02:59] <pi3> thank you Nutubuntu
[02:59] <Nutubuntu> pi3 - sudo network-admin

[02:59] <dhuv> lengend: how are you on irc?
[03:00] <lengend> this is a different pc
[03:00] <Frogzoo> puff: you have the necessary ubuntu keys - try the us mirror maybe
[03:00] <lengend> my laptop is beside me
[03:00] <pi3> Nutubuntu: do I have to reload the dns list or something? because it's not working yet
[03:00] <Gnea> this is good too for setting up the NETWORK: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/ubuntu-networking-configuration-using-command-line.html
[03:00] <puff> Frogzoo: Hm, set my apt repos to be the us mirror?
[03:00] <horst666> i need help about the network manager
[03:01] <Gnea> horst666: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/ubuntu-networking-configuration-using-graphical-tool.html
[03:01] <Nutubuntu> pi3 - Key those IPs into the DNS Servers field of the DNS tab, at the top
[03:01] <lengend> thanks Gnea i'll try that
[03:01] <dhuv> lengend: can you hook it up with a network cable or no?
[03:01] <Nutubuntu> Be well, all - gtg; back later
[03:01] <horst666> thanks i try it
[03:01] <lengend> yes but i would have to disconnect this computer, but i need wireless to work ok
[03:01] <lengend> so brb
[03:01] <dhuv> perhaps just to connect the first time to download it you can use the command line
[03:01] <Kaitlyn2K4> Gnea: it seems a tad different.. but I have no "enable this connection" - though it does seemt o be enabled
[03:02] <WhoNeedszzz> Hello all, I was trying to use the accelerated drivers for my GeForce 8800 GTS and after it says that it can't find the screen
[03:02] <dhuv> lengend: you want to try the command line first?
[03:02] <symbiote> cebu2007 if you wanna install it with teh live cd.. put the cd in ur drive restart ur comp and press del and change ur comp to boot from cd first.. then exit and save that then when prompted boot from cd.. or it will do it by itself..
[03:03] <cebu2007> symbiote, will it overwrite my existing os? ubuntu feisty
[03:03] <MinceR> bye
[03:04] <chrisjs169> how can i record audio playing through my computer's speakers?
[03:04] <Gnea> Kaitlyn2K4: i would try the commandline as well (i'm a commandline junkie) and see if that works too
[03:04] <dhuv> I am using kubuntu so I use a kde wireless manager, but does anybody know of a wireless manager in gnome that ubuntu has packages for?
[03:05] <dhuv> I am looking but cannot seem to find anything gnome specific
[03:05] <WhoNeedszzz> has anyone had my problem?
[03:05] <symbiote> cebu2007 i dono ur file system layout.. if its on a different harddrive no it wont.. if u overwrite the partition NTFS or FAT32 is on yes of course it will delete it.. but if u got enough freespace it will be fine..
[03:05] <symbiote> read this guide is helps a bit http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Install-Ubuntu-7-04-Windows-User-P-O-V-52973.shtml
[03:05] <bulio> I'm trying to play an MP3 in amarok in 7.04, but all my music files have a funny "scratching noise" in them
[03:05] <bulio> anyone know why?
[03:05] <Frogzoo> recommendations for a package to do matrix calculations ?
[03:05] <Horrendus01> okay, I read all that stuff on that page about the tablet, and I made some necessary changes to it to make sure it works
[03:05] <Frogzoo> bulio: which distro?
[03:05] <WhoNeedszzz> bulio, did you install the mp3 support?
[03:05] <dhuv> chrisjs169: through your speakers?
[03:05] <bulio> WhoNeedszzz, yes
[03:05] <dhuv> you mean use a mic?
[03:06] <WhoNeedszzz> hmmm
[03:06] <symbiote> use guided re-size ur partyitions..
[03:06] <bulio> Frogzoo, Xubuntu 7.04
[03:06] <Horrendus01> Is there any way to configure the tablet more though?  any way to make the buttons on the pen work the way I want them to?
[03:06] <bulio> WhoNeedszzz, the files play, but have a scratchy noise in the,
[03:06] <cebu2007> so better to partition it? igot only 1 hd partitioned with xp ang feisty
[03:06] <bulio> *them
[03:06] <WhoNeedszzz> it might be the mp3s themselves
[03:06] <bulio> they play fine on windows
[03:06] <symbiote> i gtg do the lawn though.. theres lots of otehr documentation on installing dfesity gogole it :D
[03:06] <WhoNeedszzz> hrm
[03:06] <Frogzoo> bulio: try changing engines, if you can
[03:06] <bulio> Frogzoo, tried it
[03:07] <DgrMouse> how do i change the date and time from the command prompt?
[03:07] <chrisjs169> dhuv: I mean like a way to record audio currently playing (such as streaming music etc) kind of like opd2d on windows
[03:07] <punsad> I installed kubuntu and want to switch to ubuntu -  I went ahead and did 'apt-get install gnome gnome-session'.  Is there anything else I need to do?
[03:07] <bulio> Frogzoo, wait, I only have xine
[03:07] <Frogzoo> DgrMouse: man date & hwclock
[03:07] <chrisjs169> dhuv: I don't really know what else to call it...
[03:07] <super-6-1> hello i need connecting to a directory
[03:07] <WhoNeedszzz> anyone know about my accelerated driver issue?
[03:07] <DgrMouse> Frogzoo: thnks
[03:07] <dhuv> chrisjs169: the second statement was a better description I think :)
[03:07] <jujjjjjjtjhtfggh> hey guys
[03:07] <Bob_le_Pointu> Hum...hello then.
[03:07] <spicypooh> Feisty 64-bit - what's the latest kernel available?  I only see 2.6.20-15
[03:08] <dhuv> are you looking to record a stream, which app are you using to play that stream?
[03:08] <WhoNeedszzz> spicypooh, DONT use it
[03:08] <jujjjjjjtjhtfggh> anyone know the path to the php5 executable on fiesty?
[03:08] <punsad> is there anything else to switchinfrom kubuntu to ubuntu other than installing gnome?
[03:08] <Bob_le_Pointu> Does someone has graphics issues with games using Q3 engine, with an ATI card ?
[03:08] <WhoNeedszzz> it isn't ready yet
[03:08] <dhuv> chrisjs169: if its a podcase, you can have amarok download it and you will have the mp3
[03:08] <spicypooh> ?
[03:08] <zemonstas> hi, I want to run irexec .lircrc -d after bootup in runlevel 5 without the Sessions manager (after logging in/logging out it has two instances of irexec) what are my options?
[03:08] <Bob_le_Pointu> jujjjjjjtjhtfggh: /usr/bin/php5
[03:08] <bulio> Frogzoo, how can I install another engine?
[03:08] <WhoNeedszzz> stick with 32-bit
[03:08] <spasticteapot> Is anyone here familiar with the Network-Monitor applet for the panel?
[03:08] <jujjjjjjtjhtfggh> thanks bob
[03:08] <spicypooh> any reason why?
[03:09] <WhoNeedszzz> it won't run well
[03:09] <WhoNeedszzz> i have had many problems
[03:09] <spicypooh> works great for me
[03:09] <WhoNeedszzz> i just reinstalled 32-bit today
[03:09] <chrisjs169> dhuv: it's a stream played through a web browser, so I don't really know how I'd get the url of the exact file
[03:09] <spicypooh> everything runs beautfitully
[03:09] <WhoNeedszzz> u can't install flash
[03:09] <WhoNeedszzz> hehe
[03:09] <Frogzoo> bulio: I don't think you can run gstreamer anyhow, & xine is best - you using the alsa output?
[03:09] <zero-9376> i have just installed feisty on my desktop and am having problems with my nvidia card. it was working last night and now x fails to start with Failed to load module "wfb" (module does not exist, 0)
[03:09] <bulio> yep
[03:09] <spicypooh> no big deal - use VMware ;)
[03:10] <spasticteapot> With a fresh install, the Network-Monitor panel applet was configured so that I could click on it, and then click a local wireless network. It was awesome. However, I accidentally deleted the icon, and now when I try to replace it, it treats my wireless connection (eth1) as an ethernet connection, and it does not have the signal level or connection selector.
[03:10] <WhoNeedszzz> meh
[03:10] <spasticteapot> How can I get it back?
[03:10] <chrisjs169> dhuv: by a 'played through a web browser' i mean like a web based app (kinda tired right now, not thinking straight)
[03:10] <tonsofpcs> If I have two apt repos set up with a package of the same name in each of them, how do I choose where it is gotten from?
[03:10] <WhoNeedszzz> i'm a developer so it isn't stable enough for me
[03:10] <horst666> excuse me gnea but the link dont help me...........if i disconnect my network (i click on the network manager symbol in the panel) after this i click on the network manager again......i become not an internet connection
[03:10] <dhuv> chrisjs169: so you got to a website and listen online?
[03:10] <spicypooh> So far it's working well - been running it for about a month
[03:10] <WhoNeedszzz> has anyone had accelerated graphics issues?
[03:10] <tonsofpcs> yes
[03:11] <chrisjs169> dhuv: basically, yes
[03:11] <tonsofpcs> [whoneedszzz - that was to you] 
[03:11] <WhoNeedszzz> thought so
[03:11] <spicypooh> How hard was it to reinstall? - did you have to completely wipe?
[03:11] <WhoNeedszzz> know how to fix it?
[03:11] <tonsofpcs> yea, I had to manually grab the binary graphics driver from ati
[03:11] <EADG_> How can I startx with wmii instead of KDE? Is there a file I can edit?
[03:11] <WhoNeedszzz> spicypooh, no just reformat the linux partition
[03:11] <bulio> Frogzoo, alsa output, stereo 2.0
[03:11] <pike_> spasticteapot: maybe a sudo dpkg-reconfigure network-monitor would work
[03:12] <zero-9376> i looked on an arch forum and they said to install nvidia-utils, which isnt in the repos for ubuntu
[03:12] <WhoNeedszzz> but of course you would want to back-up your stuff
[03:12] <Pozaro> hey i just downloaded the flash plugin for fire fox how do I go about installing it
[03:12] <zero-9376> which packages should i install to have accelerated nvidia drivers
[03:12] <spicypooh> lol ;)
[03:12] <WhoNeedszzz> zero-9376, make sure you are using all available repos
[03:12] <pike_> EADG_: i usually use ~/.xinitrc and put exec whatever in that file then run xinit from cli
[03:12] <dhuv> chrisjs169: never needed to do that so have not checked, but I have found that some of the links are to an mp3 on the web, but if you go to it in firefox, it will start playing in the browser with the mplayer plugin
[03:12] <Pozaro> if anyoneknows a good site to show me how to do this please send me the url
[03:12] <WhoNeedszzz> zero, i am having the same issue
[03:12] <dhuv> so in cases like those, you might be able to use wget to download the mp3
[03:12] <punsad> Pozaro: isn't there a package available for that?
[03:13] <EADG_> pike_: Thanks, I'll give that a go.
[03:13] <Pozaro> i dunno i am new to linux
[03:13] <Sh3r1ff> Pozaro: apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[03:13] <Pozaro> when i go to certain sites it want show flash or java apps
[03:13] <WhoNeedszzz> you could just use add/remove...
[03:13] <spasticteapot> pike_: No good.
[03:13] <Polygon89> Im trying to use the gnome floppy formatter (gfloppy), but it says its not installed and i have the package that includes it (gnome-utils) installed....
[03:13] <Frogzoo> bulio: that's all fine, don't know
[03:13] <WhoNeedszzz> and search flash
[03:13] <Pozaro> add remove?
[03:13] <spasticteapot> I apparently don't have that package.
[03:13] <Pozaro> k
[03:13] <chrisjs169> dhuv: ok, but that's kinda not exactly what it is - it's like a web based media player, so it 'hides' the url
[03:14] <pike_> spasticteapot: maybe its being run with some switches? all you did was delete the icon right?
[03:14] <spicypooh> one thing I've noticed is there is a major lack in updates for 64-bit :( - was considering reinstalling i386 but don't want to go to that extreme
[03:14] <punsad> Pozaro: just type the command that Sh3r1ff gave.  Be sure to include 'sudo' as the first word you type.  You will be promped for your password
[03:14] <zero-9376> ok im changing from the iinet mirror to default feisty but should i go with nvidia-glx or nvidia-glx-new
[03:14] <WhoNeedszzz> what happened to FULL nvidia support?
[03:14] <jadder> how to close vi
[03:14] <jadder> esc
[03:14] <Pozaro> thansk
[03:14] <jadder> :q
[03:14] <punsad> jadder: :q
[03:14] <Sh3r1ff> jadder: escape :q
[03:14] <dhuv> Pozaro: Ubuntu has an installer package for the macromedia flash plugin
[03:14] <WhoNeedszzz> spicy, it isn't that difficult
[03:14] <spasticteapot> pike_: Yeah.
[03:14] <jadder> doesnt work
[03:14] <pike_> jadder: q or q! to quit without saving or wq to quit and save or.. a few other things :)
[03:14] <spasticteapot> I then tried to add another Network-Monitor applet, but it treats it as an ethernet connection.
[03:14] <dhuv> Pozaro: search for flashplugin-nonfree
[03:14] <Polygon89> what is a program to format floppy disks?
[03:14] <Pozaro> it says the package is missing for the flash
[03:15] <punsad> exiyt
[03:15] <chrisjs169> dhuv: so I think I'm mostly looking for an audio capture program
[03:15] <dhuv> chrisjs169: oh, sorry I don't know then
[03:15] <pike_> spasticteapot: maybe someone here (im not on ubuntu) can take a look at their laucher and give you the command line its using
[03:15] <Sh3r1ff> Pozaro: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[03:15] <zero-9376> btw i have a fx5500
[03:15] <chrisjs169> dhuv: ok, thanks anyway
[03:15] <tonsofpcs> chrisjs169: what are you trying to do?
[03:15] <pike_> spasticteapot: or i guess livecd test
[03:15] <FireHazard17> im on xchat but im trying to learn irssi can some one help me?
[03:15] <jadder> wq
[03:15] <dhuv> chrisjs169: yeah I hear ya, thats definitely what you need, I don't know of any
[03:15] <chrisjs169> ok
[03:15] <pike_> FireHazard17: fire away
[03:15] <spasticteapot> pike_: I can create a new account to get it configured properly (it's a default), but I already did that once.
[03:16] <spasticteapot> Yes, I did the same thing twice by accident.
[03:16] <WhoNeedszzz> stick with XChat
[03:16] <WhoNeedszzz> heh
[03:16] <WhoNeedszzz> :)
[03:16] <spasticteapot> I'd rather just learn how to fix it.
[03:16] <FireHazard17> is there a way to list all the rooms ona server
[03:16] <horst666> how can i aktivate my internet connection
[03:16] <jadder> E37: No write since last change (add ! to override)
[03:16] <tonsofpcs> chrisjs169: what audio library do you use?
[03:16] <Sh3r1ff> jadder: :q!

[03:16] <WhoNeedszzz> does anyone here use geforce 8 series?
[03:17] <jadder> I press enter
[03:17] <Sh3r1ff> jadder: :wq or :x if you want to save
[03:17] <snerfu> I do WhoNeedszzz.
[03:17] <Pozaro> it says flashplugin-free has no installation candidate
[03:17] <snerfu> 8600 GTS
[03:17] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu are you able to use the accelerated graphics?
[03:17] <tonsofpcs> chrisjs169: OSS? ALSA? JACK?
[03:17] <jadder> wq
[03:17] <Sh3r1ff> Pozaro: nonfree ;)
[03:17] <jadder> bee bee
[03:17] <chrisjs169> ALSA
[03:17] <Sh3r1ff> Pozaro: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[03:17] <FireHazard17> heh heh heh
[03:17] <snerfu> Yes WhoNeedszzz, I had to download the new drivers manually from nvidias website.
[03:17] <chrisjs169> tonsofpcs: ALSA
[03:17] <zero-9376> nvidia-utils is still not in the repos after changing back to default ones and enabling all, also just checked packages.ubuntu.org
[03:17] <FireHazard17> you were right
[03:17] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu what all do i have to?
[03:18] <tonsofpcs> chrisjs169: with alsa, normally you can't
[03:18] <Pozaro> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[03:18] <Pozaro> is only available from another source
[03:18] <Pozaro> E: Package flashplugin-nonfree has no installation candidate
[03:18] <FireHazard17> doess it ever stop?
[03:18] <FireHazard17> :P
[03:18] <chrisjs169> tonsofpcs: i've tried OSS i think would that be any better?
[03:18] <tonsofpcs> if you install jack, you can route any audio output into any audio input, treating applications on your system like they are devices on a rack and you are patching between 'jack's on them
[03:18] <gamecheif> yo man
[03:18] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu, and it seems the latest drivers for windows are horrible
[03:18] <pyrohotdog> http://pastebin.ca/557590
[03:18] <gamecheif> i need help finding
[03:18] <FireHazard17> it not even in order!
[03:18] <FireHazard17> is there a way to stop it?
[03:18] <gamecheif> programs that allow you to create isos on linux
[03:19] <snerfu> WhoNeedszzz, its pretty easy, you need the linux-headers package installed and then just run the nvidia installer from their website in sudo.
[03:19] <m1r> vsftpd ,ln -s created , but why i need to do "mount --bind /var/www/3tcable /home/ftp/3tcable" every time i reboot to be able to see files ?
[03:19] <silvertip257> FireHazard17:  try something like Ctrl+C
[03:19] <Frogzoo> tonsofpcs: does jack work ok on feisty?
[03:19] <pyrohotdog> All the menus and other font on my machine are just squares!
[03:19] <WhoNeedszzz> hmmm
[03:19] <simmerz> has anyone played with linuxmce?
[03:19] <silvertip257> might work firehazard
[03:19] <snerfu> WhoNeedszzz, Well the new drivers are the only ones that support my new video card.
[03:19] <tonsofpcs> Frogzoo: yea
[03:19] <BobSlob> .org
[03:19] <tonsofpcs> ubuntustudio is built on feisty and includes jackd preinstalled with audio
[03:19] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu same here i believe but they aren't running right
[03:19] <pyrohotdog> Setting up xfonts-scalable (1.0.0-6) ...

[03:20] <Sh3r1ff> jadder: yes
[03:20] <zero-9376> leaving to try with nvidia-glx-new
[03:20] <FireHazard17> also i dont know how to exit terminal programs i used to just close the terminal emulator bu tis there a real way?
[03:20] <gamecheif> can anyone tell me what program to use to create isos
[03:20] <jadder> how i close vi and save
[03:20] <Sh3r1ff> jadder: press escape key first
[03:20] <logicwax> hey
[03:20] <Frogzoo> FireHazard17: ctrl d
[03:20] <snerfu> WhoNeedszzz, ahh sorry can't help much there I stop at 1280x1024 on mine.
[03:20] <FireHazard17> thank you
[03:20] <Frogzoo> gamecheif: k3b
[03:20] <jadder> :)
[03:20] <jadder> thanks
[03:21] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu, i was using 1024x768!
[03:21] <Sh3r1ff> jadder: no prob
[03:21] <Pozaro> is there a website on instalign plugins to fire fox?
[03:21] <pike_> FireHazard17: you can also ctrl-z and fg $1 to bring it back up if you like
[03:21] <silvertip257> gamecheif:  k3b or kiso work well
[03:21] <logicwax> anyone have this problem?  I'm on fiesty.....I turned on the desktop effects.....had the 3d cube for like an hour or so....don't got it anymore since reboot
[03:21] <pike_> FireHazard17: handy sometimes
[03:21] <snerfu> WhoNeedszzz, are you using the drivers from their website?
[03:21] <snerfu> WhoNeedszzz, wht kind of card do you have?
[03:21] <silvertip257> logicwax:  you need to add it to the startup
[03:21] <silvertip257> logicwax:  lemme get you a link
[03:21] <logicwax> BUT i do have it when I switch to another resolution
[03:22] <silvertip257> logicwax:  oh hmm
[03:22] <m1r> can someone help with startup of "mount --bind" command ?
[03:22] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu, 8800 GTS 320MB
[03:22] <Sh3r1ff> m1r: moubt -o bind?
[03:22] <Sh3r1ff> m1r: mount -o bind?
[03:22] <silvertip257> logicwax:  are you using beryl to be exact?
[03:22] <snerfu> Hmm that should work ok WhoNeedszzz.
[03:22] <Sh3r1ff> silvertip257: desktop effects is compiz
[03:22] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu, that's what i thought
[03:22] <m1r> Sh3r1ff , will that make it permanent ?
[03:23] <logicwax> dunno...i used to use beryl.    i just formatted and installed fiesty, is that compiz or fiesty?
[03:23] <pyrohotdog> My xorg.conf appears to be correct.
[03:23] <logicwax> ah, compiz then i guess
[03:23] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu it's PNY if that makes a diff
[03:23] <logicwax> how do you config compiz then?
[03:23] <ruffleS> hi everybody. anyone know how i set a keyboard shortcut for affinity? i'd like to use the win key for that
[03:23] <snerfu> WhoNeedszzz, ill do a little searching on the forums and see what I can find.
[03:23] <silvertip257> sh3r1ff:  beryl is compiz now; they merged recently
[03:23] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu, thanks
[03:23] <Sh3r1ff> m1r: no, you can unmount it, and after a reboot it no longer is mounted
[03:23] <Sh3r1ff> silvertip257: didn't know that
[03:23] <ruffleS> btw affinity is a program
[03:23] <dewitt> anybody know some tweaks to speed up internet, i have dsl but it goes like turtle speed, i am new to ubuntu
[03:24] <m1r> Sh3r1ff ty m8 i will try now
[03:24] <snerfu> WhoNeedszzz, I am by no means a great authority on nvidia drivers so keep asking while i look too, hehe.
[03:24] <logicwax> because its still not a cube....but a 2-desktop "plate"   i added more workspaces in gnome.......so i need to know how to config compiz i guess
[03:24] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu, no one is responding
[03:24] <silvertip257> sh3r1ff:  recently installed beryl 3d desktop and read up on the devel notes
[03:24] <Sh3r1ff> dewitt: stop leeching ;)

[03:25] <logicwax> thanks
[03:25] <WhoNeedszzz> does anyone know about the latest nvidia driver?
[03:25] <snerfu> WhoNeedszzz, is it yellow with squares?
[03:26] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu, no just yellow with vague outlines of people
[03:26] <Sh3r1ff> logicwax: then on terminal run gnome-compiz-manager
[03:26] <silvertip257> logicwax:  if you want the 3d cube & other effects, you can install beryl
[03:27] <snerfu> WhoNeedszzz, did you install the nvidia-glx package by chance?
[03:27] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu, yes
[03:27] <snerfu> ok still looking
[03:27] <WhoNeedszzz> np
[03:27] <sldkfj> Whoneedszzz, read about it here:   http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp
[03:28] <WhoNeedszzz> there is nothing to read
[03:29] <Salazar> hello... can anybody tell me what the command to check my system version is?
[03:29] <silvertip257> logicwax:  if you want beryl 3d desktop on startup, please read this forum thread:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=286508
[03:29] <Sh3r1ff> Salazar: uname -a
[03:29] <Salazar> unname -a? I don't think that's the one
[03:29] <logicwax> silvertip257: is beryl better
[03:29] <logicwax> ?
[03:29] <Salazar> I used another one a few hours ago
[03:30] <spasticteapot> I have a problem with a PCMCIA CD-ROM drive. It worked great after I plugged it in, but the card was jerked out accidentally. Now, I can't eject or unmount CD1, and plugging the drive back in does nothing.
[03:30] <m1r> Sh3r1ff, i tryed with mount -o bind but files dont show again :/
[03:30] <terrestre> Salazar:  lsb_release -a maybe
[03:30] <silvertip257> logicwax:  Beryl and Compiz (at least the plugins part of compiz) are now merging, in the hope of a better future.
[03:30] <Salazar> that's the onbe
[03:30] <Horrendus01> can anyone point me in the direction of how to start to setup my wireless for ubuntu?
[03:30] <logicwax> silvertip257: but at the current moment?   which is better for performance
[03:30] <Horrendus01> on ubuntu**
[03:30] <silvertip257> logicwax:  that came from:  http://www.beryl-project.org/
[03:30] <Sh3r1ff> m1r: mount -o bind isofile dirtomounto
[03:30] <pi3> $ bash == $ sh ?
[03:30] <WhoNeedszzz> pi3 no
[03:31] <silvertip257> logicwax:  I don't know which is better for performance, they are both graphics intensive window managers =)
[03:31] <sldkfj> Whoneedszzz, ok, read what it says the 'Release Highlights' are for amd64 here:   http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_amd64_100.14.09.html
[03:31] <WhoNeedszzz> two different beasts
[03:31] <m1r> Sh3r1ff , is vsftpd problem , mount -o bind /var/www/sitename /home/ftp/sitename
[03:31] <lengend> i finally got my wireless to work
[03:31] <WhoNeedszzz> sldkfj, why 64?
[03:31] <Sh3r1ff> m1r: use bind -o loop for a directory to mount in another directory
[03:31] <WhoNeedszzz> i am using 32-bit
[03:31] <AirHead30> Question: Is there a way to mount an NTFS drive with writable permissions on Ubuntu?
[03:32] <Defient> does anyone know what "128mb (max)" sticker mean on my computer?
[03:32] <jriachi> hello
[03:32] <pyrohotdog> AirHead30: sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
[03:32] <jadder> can I create a dir *folder wih vi?
[03:32] <jadder> I know with mkdir
[03:32] <WhoNeedszzz> sldkfj, although it doesn't matter because neither of them support the 8800
[03:32] <AirHead30> pyrohotdog: Then I can just mount it normally?
[03:32] <sn0> nn all little penguins
[03:33] <m1r> Sh3r1ff  mounts with command , but after reboot it is unmounted in /home/ftp/sitename
[03:33] <pyrohotdog> AirHead30: Yep/
[03:33] <sldkfj> Whoneedszzz, then you read it  :p~~~~~
[03:33] <m1r> i will try loop now
[03:33] <AirHead30> pyrohotdog: Okay, thanks :)
[03:33] <Sh3r1ff> m1r: if you want it to be permanent add it in fstab
[03:33] <WhoNeedszzz> sldkfj, what are you talking about?
[03:33] <jriachi> in the installation, i had lots of problems (like my configuration not taking effect) with the "NetworkManager Applet", are they know bugs?
[03:34] <spasticteapot> jriachi: Same bloody problem.
[03:34] <sldkfj> WhoNeedszzz, apparently something over your head
[03:34] <jadder> can I create a dir with vi?
[03:34] <m1r> i c
[03:34] <WhoNeedszzz> sldkfj, i said it isn't supported in linux....
[03:34] <Defient> does anyone know what "128mb (max)" sticker mean on my computer?
[03:34] <Sh3r1ff> sldkfj: don't laugh with little people ;)
[03:34] <spasticteapot> jriachi: I accidentally removed mine, added another, and now it treats my wireless adapter as an ethernet card - I don't have the connection selection or signal bars or other good stuff.
[03:34] <WhoNeedszzz> HEY
[03:34] <jriachi> spasticteapot: do that problems appear in the installed  system also?
[03:34] <WhoNeedszzz> i'm no little person
[03:34] <WhoNeedszzz> :)
[03:34] <Sh3r1ff> :p
[03:35] <jadder> can I make a dir with vi?
[03:35] <pike_> Defient: b is a flat so 128m stands for 11 of may. so that is the flatline date
[03:35] <spasticteapot> jriachi: Installed system? What do you mean by that exactly?
[03:35] <jadder> instead of mkdir
[03:35] <m1r> Sh3r1ff, how should i add it there ? like: mount --bind /var/www/sitename /home/ftp/sitename ?
[03:35] <WhoNeedszzz> vi is to view files...
[03:35] <silvertip257> logicwax:  I'm reading forum posts right now and it goes both ways; one guy says he got a boost of 40 fps with beryl compared to compiz
[03:35] <Defient> pike_:  Thank you!!!!!
[03:35] <Sh3r1ff> jadder: don't think so, the directoru has to exist i think, but the file you can create
[03:35] <rahal> some one available for help ?
[03:35] <sldkfj> hahahaha, he comes in here asking,   "Does anyone know about the latest nvidia driver?"   and says he said it wasn't supported in linux
[03:36] <jadder> ok, and what mean connect to TTTY2
[03:36] <logicwax> hrmm
[03:36] <WhoNeedszzz> i just figured that out genius
[03:36] <sldkfj> actually less is to view files
[03:36] <WhoNeedszzz> i am only here because i am waiting for snerfu to come back
[03:36] <jadder> TTY2
[03:36] <jriachi> spasticteapot: i am having this networkmanager problems in the live cd... do this problems also appear when ubuntu is running installed in the hard drive?
[03:37] <spasticteapot> jriachi: From a fresh install, it works great. It might just be LiveCD problems.
[03:37] <snerfu> Yeah I can't find a similar issue on the forums WhoNeedszzz, my best advice is to try the new drivers from their website.
[03:37] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu, i am using the latest drivers
[03:37] <WhoNeedszzz> heh
[03:37] <jriachi> spasticteapot: glad to hear it :)
[03:38] <snerfu> 100.14.09?
[03:38] <silvertip257> later I've gotta get some sleep ;)
[03:38] <Sh3r1ff> m1r: something like /dir /dir /ext3 default 0 0
[03:38] <jadder> how know what mean TTY2
[03:38] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu, it isn't supported in linux, and so my problem is in Windows
[03:39] <Sh3r1ff> jadder: press ctrl + alt + f2 for tty2
[03:39] <WhoNeedszzz> and this is a linux room so...
[03:39] <jadder> o
[03:39] <jadder> is a terminal
[03:39] <bruenig> !english | jadder
[03:39] <snerfu> oh
[03:39] <ubotu> jadder: The #ubuntu, #kubuntu and #xubuntu channels are English only. For a complete list of channels in other languages, please visit http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat
[03:39] <DanaG> For some reason, networkmanager seems to ignore the option "prepend domain-name-servers" in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient,conf.
[03:39] <jadder> I am not talking spanish
[03:40] <WhoNeedszzz> idiot!
[03:40] <snerfu> WhoNeedszzz, its definately supported in linux.
[03:40] <WhoNeedszzz> lol
[03:40] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu, not the 8800
[03:40] <WhoNeedszzz> :(
[03:40] <WhoNeedszzz> http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_100.14.09.html
[03:41] <sldkfj> [ep[;e, that'
[03:41] <m1r> Sh3r1ff , http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25050/ ?
[03:41] <snerfu> those cards are newer than the 8800 WhoNeedszzz.  Support came out before that release.
[03:42] <snerfu> Those are the list of cards added in that driver.
[03:42] <WhoNeedszzz> wtf
[03:42] <snerfu> I installed it on someones 8800 before.
[03:42] <WhoNeedszzz> let me check my sanity
[03:42] <sldkfj> snerfu, whoneedszzz doesn't look at it that way
[03:42] <WhoNeedszzz> yep i'm sane
[03:42] <WhoNeedszzz> 8600 comes BEFORE 8800
[03:42] <sldkfj> no, you're full of yourself
[03:42] <WhoNeedszzz> wtf
[03:42] <sldkfj> crapola
[03:42] <WhoNeedszzz> lol
[03:42] <Sh3r1ff> m1r: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25051/
[03:42] <snerfu> yeah the 8600 was added as a value series because the 8800 was so expensive.
[03:43] <WhoNeedszzz> wtf
[03:43] <spasticteapot> WhoNeedszzz: Go read the bloody Nvidia webpage.
[03:43] <WhoNeedszzz> i'm right there
[03:43] <WhoNeedszzz> geez
[03:43] <logicwax> what about making it so alt-tab doesn't zoom out when I wanna switch windows
[03:43] <sldkfj> go away,  this channel doesn't talk about nvidia drivers,  that's what their forum is for
[03:43] <logicwax> very annoying as it slows down fps
[03:44] <WhoNeedszzz> you are so kind
[03:44] <m1r> ty Sh3r1ff, i go reboot to check
[03:44] <Murrlin> hello
[03:44] <sldkfj> WhoNeedszzz, need some cheese with your whine?
[03:44] <m1r> hope i will manage to get back :D
[03:44] <WhoNeedszzz> sldkfj you are going to hell
[03:45] <Sh3r1ff> WhoNeedszzz: we are all going to hell ;)
[03:45] <WhoNeedszzz> i hope you get hit by a flying fat woman and die
[03:45] <WhoNeedszzz> lol
[03:45] <spasticteapot> if Under Ubuntu, as a default, the Gnome applet Network-Monitor has some nifty features relating to wifi - it has the "5 bars" when you're connected, and when you click on it, a drop-down menu appears of various wifi connections. However, after accidentally removing the applet and adding another network-manager applet to my panel, my wifi connection (eth1) is treated as an ethernet connection. Perhaps I could rename eth1 to wlan0? O
[03:45] <spasticteapot> r fix the applet?
[03:45] <Murrlin> I cannot get the nvidia driver to stay configured between restarts
[03:45] <Murrlin> should/can I re-install the repository drivers?
[03:46] <Wolfcastle> hello
[03:46] <Wolfcastle> could someone please post their sources.list?
[03:46] <lengend_> hello
[03:46] <Wolfcastle> it works in xubuntu right?
[03:46] <Sh3r1ff> spasticteapot: dpkg --purge gnome-network-manager then apt-get install gnome-network-manager
[03:47] <Frogzoo> !easysource | Wolfcastle
[03:47] <ubotu> Wolfcastle: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[03:47] <WhoNeedszzz> i see
[03:47] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu you are right
[03:47] <sldkfj> Wolfcastle, finish that thought...
[03:47] <Wolfcastle> thank you very much Frogzoo
[03:47] <WhoNeedszzz> sorry :)
[03:47] <spasticteapot> Sh3r1ff: gnome-network-manager is not installed.
[03:47] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu, so what all do i do to get it configured properly?
[03:47] <Wolfcastle> sldkfj: I mean, xubuntu uses the same repositories as ubuntu right?
[03:47] <sldkfj> Wolfcastle, ... post their sources.list?      "to a pastebin"
[03:47] <Sh3r1ff> spasticteapot: install it then, that is the applet you want
[03:47] <spasticteapot> It does not exist.
[03:48] <sldkfj> "not in channel"
[03:48] <DanaG> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/92761
[03:48] <Wolfcastle> sldkfj: of course, that's what i meant
[03:48] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu?
[03:48] <sldkfj> meant doesn't accomplish the need for preciseness
[03:48] <Sh3r1ff> spasticteapot: network-manager-gnome
[03:49] <Sh3r1ff> spasticteapot: do dpkg --purge before install
[03:49] <snerfu> all that you need to do is install the linux-headers package and then run their nvidia installer script WhoNeedszzz.
[03:49] <WhoNeedszzz> ok
[03:49] <WhoNeedszzz> which headers package though
[03:49] <WhoNeedszzz> heh
[03:49] <Sh3r1ff> WhoNeedszzz: linux-headers-`uname -r `
[03:49] <Wolfcastle> sldkfj: well paste-bin, email, phone call, i just needed it, doesn't matter how
[03:50] <WhoNeedszzz> ok i have them
[03:50] <WhoNeedszzz> so just run the installer?
[03:50] <WhoNeedszzz> thanks

[03:51] <Pozaro> :( he flash player will not install withthat command
[03:52] <roostishaw> Pozaro: tried automatix2?
[03:52] <Pozaro> nope havent tried that
[03:52] <DanaG> !automatix
[03:52] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[03:52] <roostishaw> try it
[03:52] <roostishaw> lol
[03:53] <Pozaro> sounds dangerous
[03:53] <GrueTamer> it can be
[03:53] <Pozaro> there has got to be another way
[03:53] <DanaG> It uses Force, and it overwrites your sources.
[03:53] <logicwax> i've never had problems with automatix OTHER then you can't upgrade to a new ubuntu version
[03:53] <roostishaw> same here
[03:53] <Pozaro> hmmmmmm
[03:53] <merrnt> I installed Ubuntu alongside Windows XP, and now when I try to boot into windows, it just gives me a black screen and never loads, are there any guides  on fixing this?
[03:54] <GrueTamer> automatix is somethin like this
[03:54] <GrueTamer> !worksforme
[03:54] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[03:54] <ultra_violet_dt> Oh snap - ubuntu is my new favorite distro for my little lucky vintage g3 ppc ibook!
[03:54] <roostishaw> well, it works for me

[03:59] <Gohalien> I updated
[04:00] <Pozaro> how do i unisall
[04:00] <Gohalien> now, my wireless card and video card
[04:00] <Gohalien> gives me error
[04:00] <Pozaro> i need to uy a linux book
[04:00] <bruenig> kkathman, that is flash
[04:00] <Gohalien> if I run 2.6.20-16-generic my video drivers and wireless card not working
[04:00] <Gohalien> in 2.6.20-15-generic are working fine
[04:00] <kkathman> bruenig:  well the ad is flash the video isnt
[04:00] <WhoNeedszzz> snerfu?
[04:00] <bruenig> kkathman, doesn't work I guess
[04:00] <Gohalien> (I am in 2.6.20-15-generic atm)
[04:00] <n2diy> bruenig: any idea if the feisty plug ins would work in Dapper?
[04:00] <bruenig> kkathman, I got the same problem
[04:00] <Gohalien> how can I reinstall 2.6.20-16-generic ?
[04:00] <bruenig> n2diy, what plugin are you wanting
[04:01] <larson9999> i think i'm turning into an OS nazi.  seems daily i dispise windows more and more
[04:01] <Pozaro> this is the error i get
[04:01] <Pozaro> Package flashplugin-nonfree is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[04:01] <Pozaro> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[04:01] <Pozaro> is only available from another source
[04:01] <Pozaro> E: Package flashplugin-nonfree has no installation candidate
[04:01] <uncle_rico> anybody know how to get the 'cube' effect back on, mine just stopped working
[04:01] <n2diy> bruenig: the one your currently talking about with kkathman.
[04:01] <Pozaro> what am i doing wrong i just dled it so i know is there
[04:01] <Gohalien> uncle_rico: you updated kernel today ?
[04:01] <WhoNeedszzz> does anyone know why when i press ctrl+alt+F1 it won't display?
[04:01] <bruenig> n2diy, there is no plugin that will work with that at all I believe
[04:01] <gtr> My system has been locking up lately, toshiba laptop.  I have been trying to diagnose, and I think it is most likely bad ram.  I have done memtest a few times, and sometimes it will give errors, and other times it wont, it tells you where the errors where, and it seemed to be after the first 512 megs, anyone know how to use memtest correctly?
[04:02] <uncle_rico> not today but resently
[04:02] <sldkfj> WhoNeedszzz, since you know I'm going to hell,  How are the Southern Baptists treating you?
[04:02] <n2diy> WhoNeedszzz: ctrl+alt+F1 call up a terminal, not a gui.
[04:02] <bruenig> Pozaro, wow, ok in ubuntu, there is package management which consists of ubuntu maintained repositories of software, you use synaptic or apt-get from the command line to access the repositories download and install stuff as well as uninstall stuff, don't download stuff from your browser, just use the repos
[04:02] <n2diy> call/calls
[04:02] <WhoNeedszzz> n2diy i know that
[04:02] <Sh3r1ff> Pozaro: dpkg -i file
[04:02] <Gohalien> today there was an update of 2.6.20-16-generic, now if I run in 2.6.20-16-generic my video card drivers and wireless card are not working, in 2.6.20-15-generic are working fine
[04:03] <bruenig> Pozaro, pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list if you are getting that error, I can't imagine why
[04:03] <WhoNeedszzz> it won't display the terminal
[04:03] <bruenig> !pastebin | Pozaro

[04:23] <crdlb> FireHazard17, /msg chanserv access #ubuntu list
[04:23] <ticnailer69> Does anyone know how I would go about downloading the linux kernal version 2.6.10?
[04:23] <PriceChild> Back on topic please people :)
[04:23] <Sh3r1ff> FireHazard17: there here, you just don't see them ;)
[04:23] <ticnailer69> from the command line
[04:23] <FireHazard17> they are hidden?
[04:23] <Pozaro> how do i get my desktop to show all the files
[04:23] <Pozaro> some are hidden
[04:23] <WhoNeedszzz> does anyone know why i get "video can not be displayed" when i press ctrl+alt+F1?
[04:23] <n2diy> ticnailer69: sure, use synaptic, search for linux.
[04:23] <sldkfj> ask in #Xubuntu
[04:24] <myth> does anybody know how to add myself to the video group on my box?
[04:24] <ticnailer69> synaptic?
[04:24] <GigaClon> Pozaro, same as normal look in a file browser window
[04:24] <Sh3r1ff> WhoNeedszzz: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:24] <n2diy> ticnailer69: with apt-get.
[04:24] <alienseer23> does the latest edition of ubuntu come with support for linksys wireless built in?
[04:24] <ticnailer69> oh
[04:24] <ticnailer69> ok
[04:24] <n2diy> ticnailer69: synaptic is a gui interface to apt-get.
[04:24] <WhoNeedszzz> sh3r1ff, why would i do that?
[04:24] <sbalneav> WhoNeedszzz: What kind of monitor is it?  A flat panel?
[04:24] <Pozaro> thanks
[04:24] <WhoNeedszzz> sbalneav yes
[04:24] <Sh3r1ff> WhoNeedszzz: aren't you having a video problem?
[04:25] <ticnailer69> oh
[04:25] <sbalneav> WhoNeedszzz: Probably because the monitor doesn't like the low-res text screen (i.e it's at the wrong refresh rate).
[04:25] <myth> pricechild: where did u go?
[04:25] <WhoNeedszzz> it won't display when i press ctrl+alt+F1
[04:25] <|-David-|> Guys, any way to make the numlock turn on when the computer starts?
[04:25] <alienseer23> or...if I have a bcm43xx wireless card for internet access, will the latest edition of ubuntu install support automatically?
[04:25] <PriceChild> myth, hey here sorry
[04:25] <PriceChild> myth, i'm not sure
[04:26] <WhoNeedszzz> sbalneav how do i change the refresh rate?
[04:26] <FireHazard17> hey is anyone here from when i was learning irssi
[04:26] <laserbeak> i'm looking at this page on how to install ubuntu https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows and it says it's very experimental has anyone tried it? they even suggested using a knoppix kernel to boot from
[04:26] <PriceChild> myth, but chowning it to you should let you view it
[04:26] <myth> i tried that and no beans
[04:26] <myth> price i tried that and no beans*
[04:26] <PriceChild> laserbeak, not supported, that's a 3rd party project
[04:26] <PriceChild> myth, sorry, don't know then

[04:27] <phantam1> yay my ubuntu's loaded!
[04:27] <tsai> hey, i just installed IE6 for linux.  Anyone know how to add more fonts?
[04:27] <myth> price v-box1:~$ sudo chown mythtv /dev/video0 thats the right command right?
[04:27] <PriceChild> myth, no
[04:27] <phantam1> frigging upgrade to 6.10 took forever... and now i gotta upgrade to 7.04 LOL
[04:27] <WhoNeedszzz> tsai why would u install ie6???
[04:27] <KI4IKL> WHAT THE HELL? IE on linux...that is a disaster waiting to happen...Bill gates taking ove rlinux :P
[04:27] <PriceChild> sudo chown user:group /path/to/foo
[04:27] <myth> oh... what wouldit be then?
[04:27] <sbalneav> WhoNeedszzz: You may be able to change it with the kernel command line option vga=793, or something to that effect, however, that's going to entail editing your grub config, with a high chance of something getting messed up.  Better solution would be to temporarily to try a different monitor.
[04:27] <phantam1> their was an IE for linux
[04:27] <phantam1> but microsoft closed the project
[04:27] <WhoNeedszzz> seriously
[04:27] <tsai> well, there are some websites you can't see without it
[04:27] <phantam1> reassigned the team
[04:27] <phantam1> it was a few years ago
[04:27] <n2diy> KI4IKL: qsl?
[04:27] <WhoNeedszzz> the purpose of linux is to get AWAY from microsoft
[04:28] <KI4IKL> EM53

[04:28] <openmindDJ> any other suggestions as to why DVDs are playing without video?
[04:28] <n2diy> KI4IKL: EN20
[04:28] <phantam1> not only microsoft sites
[04:28] <phantam1> lots of sites are "ie tweaked"
[04:28] <phantam1> but isnt their a firefox plugin to get around that?
[04:28] <tsai> if you do web development you know this is common
[04:28] <KI4IKL> WhoNeedszzz, actually, my mom's work has a website that wont let you see it without ie
[04:28] <WhoNeedszzz> well that is pretty strange
[04:28] <PriceChild> !offtopic

[04:29] <PriceChild> Spanky, choose the new server tab, then do /server whatever.com
[04:29] <myth> price, then what would be the right command? because the ls -l camd out as crw-rw---- 1 mythtv video 81, 0 2007-06-10 21:52 /dev/video0

[04:32] <Toma-> Quiz: install the "emerald" and "emarald-themes" package
[04:32] <phantam1> is it nvidia-settings?
[04:32] <WhoNeedszzz> sbalneav it wasn't a problem until i got my geforce 8800 GTS

[04:33] <ubotu> phantam1: xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead
[04:33] <WhoNeedszzz> it was fine with my ATI card
[04:33] <Spanky> good luck WhoNeedszzz
[04:33] <joseph> Anyone here know what the nifty applet in the Dock is that gives you all the wifi options, lets you select networks, shows signal strength, etc?
[04:33] <Toma-> phantam1: the 'nvidia-settings' tool is by far the easiest way, if youre running the nvidia driver
[04:33] <joseph> Apparently it's not network-monitor.
[04:33] <bruenig> !anyone | joseph
[04:33] <sbalneav> WhoNeedszzz: Well, it's a different card.  It may not like text more.
[04:33] <ubotu> joseph: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?

[04:33] <nootrope> Hiya. I'm trying to install avidemux on Fiesty (may or may not be a good idea). The wiki's directions for Ubuntu say to type "apt-get cache search avidemux" after adding Universe etc to sources.list.What are these cache and search arguments? I don't recognize them and neither does the shell.
[04:34] <sbalneav> WhoNeedszzz: Do you have another monitor you could try temporarily?
[04:34] <WhoNeedszzz> sbalneav no other monitor...
[04:34] <WhoNeedszzz> sbalneav i wasn't lying
[04:34] <Sh3r1ff> nootrope: apt-cache search something
[04:34] <joseph> Network-manager seems to work. Network-monitor is the thingy in the dock, and it seems to be quite different from the magic wifi program that appears in the upper-right corner when you start up Ubuntu for the first time.
[04:34] <phantam1> cool
[04:34] <phantam1> well
[04:34] <bruenig> joseph, it is actually called networkmanager, but ubuntu calls it network-manager-gnome just like ubotu told you
[04:34] <phantam1> i have an nvidia card
[04:34] <phantam1> how can i tell if im using the nvidia driver actively?
[04:34] <sbalneav> WhoNeedszzz: You could try to temporarily set the video mode... At boot up, when you have the 3 second "hit esc for grub" screen...
[04:35] <nootrope> Sh3rIff: thanks. and the 'cache' argument?
[04:35] <Toma-> phantam1: run 'glxinfo'
[04:35] <WhoNeedszzz> ?
[04:35] <joseph> bruenig: Network manager is working. I just want the fancy doodad back on my dock.
[04:35] <joseph> Apparently, it's seperate.
[04:35] <arooni> how do i install thunderbird?
[04:35] <joseph> Yes, I uninstalled/reinstalled it.
[04:35] <arooni> on edgy?
[04:35] <bruenig> joseph, right click on the panel, add to panel
[04:35] <WhoNeedszzz> grub boots automatically
[04:35] <joseph> bruenig: No go.
[04:35] <sbalneav> WhoNeedszzz: You could hit esc, edit the kernel line, and add the vga=793 bit at the end.
[04:35] <joseph> I get something else.
[04:35] <phantam1> mmmm
[04:35] <Sh3r1ff> nootrope: means you search in your cache of the packages list
[04:35] <bruenig> joseph, which nm-applet gives you what
[04:35] <phantam1> i did that
[04:35] <Toma-> arooni: it should be available in synaptic or even add/remove applications
[04:36] <sbalneav> WhoNeedszzz: That will set a different text resolution, that the monitor may like better.
[04:36] <arooni> Toma-: didnt find it in syanptic
[04:36] <joseph> bruenig: Network-monitor gives me something that looks the same, but won't show wifi signal strength bars, list networks when you click on it, et cetera.
[04:36] <WhoNeedszzz> it isn't the monitor
[04:36] <bullgard4> I did not install the package dhcpcd but my computer still functions as a DHCP client. What alternative package makes my computer fucnction as anDHCP client?
[04:36] <bruenig> joseph, ok stop telling me about that, I don't care, do "which nm-applet" tell me if it outputs anything
[04:36] <WhoNeedszzz> it's my gfx card
[04:36] <Pozaro> bruenig you get it ?
[04:36] <Toma-> !info thunderbird edgy
[04:36] <joseph> Oh.
[04:36] <ubotu> Package thunderbird does not exist in edgy

[04:36] <joseph> Wow, I'm dubm.
[04:36] <Toma-> oic
[04:36] <arooni> oh noes!
[04:36] <arooni> what can i do?
[04:37] <nootrope> Sh3rIff: hmm. they make it seem like it's something I should type at the command line like this, "apt-get cache search avidemux" which makes no sense. are they wrong?
[04:37] <sbalneav> WhoNeedszzz: ok, well it will set a video mode that the CARD will drive the MONITOR better, then.

[04:38] <Lapinux> is there someplace i can tell ubuntu i dont want mounted devices to appear on the desktop
[04:38] <phantam1> cause i've got a nvidia 6600
[04:38] <bruenig> joseph, ok so it is installed, run "nm-applet" I think that should make it show up in the tray iirc
[04:38] <Toma-> arooni: next time, open synaptic and click the Search button, then look for the program name in the 'name' dialog :)

[04:38] <WhoNeedszzz> phantam1 i know, they messed up on the 8 series in the packaging
[04:38] <keNzi> where is the apache config where i can enable SVN_AUTHZ in ubuntu? :|
[04:39] <sbalneav> WhoNeedszzz: So, are you going to try what I suggested?
[04:39] <phantam1> so how do i get my pc to load the nvidia 6600 driver
[04:39] <WhoNeedszzz> what was it again, too many people have been talking since
[04:39] <phantam1> just install nvidia-glx?
[04:39] <WhoNeedszzz> phantam1 it isn't supported!
[04:39] <bruenig> joseph, should work, you should also be able to access it in the add to panel thing
[04:39] <sbalneav> WhoNeedszzz: Scroll back and see.
[04:39] <phantam1> wtf
[04:39] <phantam1> how could it not be supported
[04:40] <phantam1> its like a 2 year old card
[04:40] <Phire> Hey there can you use .bin's to install in Ubuntu?
[04:40] <WhoNeedszzz> phantam1 omg, it got messed up in the packaging
[04:40] <Toma-> phantam1: its supported. im using it right here
[04:40] <gneale> Phire: sometimes
[04:40] <joseph> bruenig: Network-monitor gives me something that thinks eth1 (intel 802.11b card) is an ethernet card. I do get a signal strength bar if I click on it, but under interface type, it says " ethernet " .
[04:40] <phantam1> how did u get it to work toma-
[04:40] <bruenig> phantam1, ignore WhoNeedszzz he is trolling
[04:40] <Toma-> WhoNeedszzz: what are you talking about?
[04:40] <joseph> bruenig: I can give you a screenshot, maybe?
[04:40] <Phire> gneale: How do you know/install it?
[04:40] <bruenig> joseph, no, that is not the right thing, that is another applet
[04:41] <spasticteapot> bruenig: Huh.
[04:41] <bruenig> it should be called something else
[04:41] <spasticteapot> Okay, it's not in the list.
[04:41] <WhoNeedszzz> toma, you can't possibly be using a 8800 and using the accelerated graphics dirver
[04:41] <WhoNeedszzz> driver*
[04:41] <Toma-> phantam1: having a look at your poastebin. 1 moment
[04:41] <phantam1> WhoNeedszzz: but no ones talking about the 8800

[04:41] <sbalneav> Well, tried to help you.
[04:41] <Toma-> WhoNeedszzz: ...no-ones using a 8800?

[04:42] <WhoNeedszzz> not for linux you don't
[04:42] <bruenig> spasticteapot, I don't know what it is called, try every applet in there if you must, it should be there
[04:42] <Defient> sure?
[04:42] <WhoNeedszzz> or windows for that matter
[04:42] <spasticteapot> It's not.
[04:42] <Toma-> phantam1: right youre not using the nvidia driver at this moment. can you please put a copy of xorg.conf up on pastebin?
[04:42] <Defient> I have a 6600 now
[04:42] <phantam1> mm ya 1 sec
[04:42] <Phire> lol I have a 5600 :-D
[04:42] <Defient> lol!

[04:43] <WhoNeedszzz> defient, it is a good card but nvidia messed up the latest driver, so wait it out a bit longer
[04:43] <Defient> k
[04:43] <Defient> hopefully soon
[04:43] <spasticteapot> bruenig: What if I create a new user, "Fubar", and then copy down what the applet is?
[04:43] <Phire> /home/eric/Desktop/hlds_l_1120_full.bin thats my file... anyone care to enlighten me on if this is usable in Ubuntu ?
[04:43] <spasticteapot> I keep accidentally deleting the stupid thing.

[05:20] <MacDrunk_> ???? please i need help
[05:20] <m1r> Frogzoo , vsftpd, it runs ok but when i reboot then it dont show files in ftp fplder
[05:20] <cchance_> ok
[05:20] <cchance_> this is odd
[05:20] <cchance_> since i switched to nvidia
[05:20] <cchance_> the TV went blank
[05:20] <Dr_willis> wizard button?  Hmm.. is swat even installed by default in ubuntu?
[05:21] <cchance_> no more flashy colors
[05:21] <MacDrunk_> dr no
[05:21] <cchance_> but under nvidia-settings im only seeing my lcd
[05:21] <MacDrunk_> i have to installed my self
[05:21] <MacDrunk_> whit sudo apt-get commadn
[05:21] <Frogzoo> m1r: easiest perhaps to install wu-ftpd, which has the scripts to start on boot
[05:21] <m1r> Frogzoo, i have to do : mount --bind /var/www/sitename /home/ftp/sitename ; to be able to see files again after every reboot, and is quite frustrating
[05:21] <MrKeuner> how can I blacklist a module?
[05:21] <Lilacor> !blacklist
[05:21] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u 
[05:22] <m1r> vsftpd starts on boot :/
[05:22] <MrKeuner> Lilacor: thanks
[05:22] <Lilacor> MrKeuner: You're welcome.
[05:22] <MacDrunk_> dr willis are u here
[05:22] <Frogzoo> m1r: can you do that mount from /etc/fstab?
[05:23] <WelshPole> hey all
[05:23] <WelshPole> I'm having a cd drive problem
[05:23] <m1r> i dont know how to try that Frogzoo
[05:23] <Lilacor> you can prevent vsftp from starting on boot
[05:23] <m1r> i tryed b4 but seems somthing was wrong
[05:23] <Frogzoo> m1r: in that case, just put that mount command in /etc/rc.local
[05:23] <WelshPole> I'm getting 1.2X on ripping, not on purpose, and DMA  *is* enabled... any ideas?
[05:23] <Dr_willis> MacDrunk_,  theres other samba configuration utilities out now besides swat. You may want to try them. Ive not messed with swat in ages. The swat configs May in fact have swat disabled by default untill you edit them.
[05:23] <Frogzoo> m1r: it's dirty, but it will work
[05:23] <myk`> Lilacor, do you know why on install I get stopped with the following error? /bin/sh can't access tty: job control turned off   ?
[05:23] <WelshPole> P.l.e.a.s.e h.e.l.p me.... that's what my cd drive sounds like... haha

[05:31] <Lilacor> gamecheif: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
[05:31] <gamecheif> cdrecord is mkisofs
[05:31] <Zenji> WAO
[05:31] <Zenji> Hey question.
[05:31] <Zenji> This is kinda Windows but Ubuntu may have something to do with it.
[05:32] <Zenji> Im running off of Timewarner (Adelphia) internet. On Ubuntu I can get on the internet, but not on Win XP
[05:32] <Lilacor> Zenji: you shouldn't have any issues.
[05:32] <magik> Any eterm pros out there wanna give me a hand? should be simple
[05:32] <Zenji> I do tho.
[05:32] <FFForever> Hi People
[05:32] <FarrisG> I've got some very large evms volumes I've been using for backups for quite some time. A few days ago I rebooted the machine I normally use for these backups, and since then I've been getting very slow throughput. However, I don't know whether it's slow network reads (the data is coming across NFS), slow usb (the evms volumes are on USB attached RAIDs), or slow FS. Nothing has changed hardware-wise, but I see a lot of I/O wait
[05:32] <Zenji> I go on, the PC light blinks...
[05:32] <Zenji> ...the rest is on..
[05:32] <nuyao> Lapinux: can you post your xorg.conf at no-paste?
[05:32] <Zenji> Ipconfig shows nothing...
[05:32] <FFForever> i was wondering if anyone knew a program like tsearch (on windows) but for linux
[05:32] <Lapinux> yah
[05:32] <Lilacor> Zenji: what troubleshooting steps have you made thus far?
[05:33] <Lapinux> nuyao:what one do you guys use here
[05:33] <Lilacor> FFForever: what is tsearch?
[05:33] <gamecheif> qwestion is cdrecord mkisofs
[05:33] <Zenji> Lilacor: Ive cycled the power and all of that..
[05:33] <FFForever> a memory cheater (i use it 2 edit memory vars so i can cheat in games :D)
[05:33] <Lilacor> Zenji: and all of what?
[05:33] <FFForever> memory editor*
[05:33] <nuyao> Lapinux: paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[05:34] <Lilacor> Zenji: please be specific... you wouldn't want me to give you vague steps, would you?
[05:34] <m1r> no luck, it asks me for password now :/
[05:34] <Zenji> Well basically just reseting the box.
[05:34] <Lilacor> FarrisG: eVms? doesn't ring a bell.
[05:34] <Zenji> Lilacor: Unplugging the computer and cable modem.
[05:34] <Lilacor> Zenji: is that is?
[05:34] <Lilacor> Zenji: is that it?
[05:35] <Zenji> Lilacro: Ya.
[05:35] <Lilacor> Zenji: okay,  first of all is this wireless or wired?
[05:35] <Zenji> Lilacor:
[05:35] <Zenji> Lilacor: Its wired.
[05:35] <Lapinux> nuyao: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25058
[05:35] <Lilacor> Zenji: what chipset is your network card?
[05:36] <craigbass1976> I've gotten farther along on my bind config.  Now I get an error with named-checkzone "zone moultonlumber.com/IN: has no NS records"  What typically causes that?
[05:36] <TheCougar> why does the install require 4gb of HD when you can run the OS off of a cd with the apps?:)
[05:36] <Zenji> Lilacor: I dont really know :-/
[05:36] <Lilacor> Zenji: 'sudo lshw'
[05:36] <zacchaeus> whats the difference between pico and nano?
[05:36] <craigbass1976> TheCougar, I think because when you install, they're not compressed anymore
[05:36] <nuyao> Lapinux: check line 95
[05:36] <Lilacor> Zenji: you're at least familiar with the command line interface right?
[05:36] <Pelo> TheCougar,  stuff gets unpacked and you need space for a swap
[05:37] <Zenji> SCSI
[05:37] <Lapinux> nuyao: this happened when i tried enabling the proprietary nvidia driver for desktop effects, but i also had this problem with the default install, i had to run the dpgk-reconfigure command to fix it the first time, this time it didnt seem to work
[05:37] <Zenji> Lilacor: SCSI
[05:37] <Lilacor> zacchaeus: one is GPL, one is not
[05:37] <WelshPole> How do you change cd read speed?  I'm reading at less than 2X it's killing me
[05:37] <zacchaeus> i prefer pico
[05:37] <Lilacor> Zenji: huh?
[05:37] <Lapinux> nuyao: ok
[05:37] <zacchaeus> hehe
[05:37] <nuyao> Lapinux: its more like 50-160 or something like that, just look it up for your monitor
[05:37] <Zenji> Lilacor: Wait sorry.
[05:37] <Lilacor> zacchaeus: okay, use that then
[05:37] <Zenji> Lilacor: Im lookin one sec.
[05:37] <craigbass1976> Any BIND gurus in here?
[05:38] <Tarkus> hey, do you guys now if its possible to save a video that you stream from the internet?? like if i "right-click>view in movie player". is there a way to save it to my pc?
[05:38] <Lilacor> craigbass1976: did you try #bind?
[05:38] <Lapinux> nuyao: let me check what it was on my old config
[05:38] <Pelo> craigbass1976, best I can do for you  http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/distrib/ubuntu/unleashed/
[05:38] <Lilacor> Tarkus: there should be if it is streaming to your box.
[05:38] <meaflux> hello!
[05:38] <nuyao> Lapinux: try 31-96 on line 94 and 55-160 on line 95
[05:38] <Lilacor> Tarkus: there is a streaming video saver plugin for firefox, try that
[05:38] <Lilacor> hello!
[05:39] <Pelo> hello w00t we can still tell it,s you
[05:39] <meaflux> I know
[05:39] <meaflux> w00t was just a default setting, forgot to change it, lol.
[05:39] <Zenji> Lilacor:  description: Ethernet interface
[05:39] <Zenji>                 product: 82801G (ICH7 Family)
[05:39] <meaflux> <--- been using irc for a looooooooong time. :)
[05:39] <Lilacor> Zenji: you should have no trouble with that
[05:39] <Lilacor> Zenji: so it's not the chipset
[05:39] <pike_> mythtv-0.20_2 is marked as broken. incorrect handling of use addition. <-- getting that in 6.2 when i try to make. ive updated ports any ideas?
[05:39] <meaflux> quick question (hopefully)....
[05:39] <Zenji> Lilacor: More info.
[05:39] <Lapinux> nuyao: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25059
[05:39] <mflynn> Is it possible to increase the size of the swap?
[05:40] <Lapinux> nuyao: thats my old one and its even lower there
[05:40] <Zenji> Lilacor: I have literally been going back and forth from Ubuntu to XP and Ubuntu... it works.
[05:40] <Dr_willis> mflynn,  you can always add a swap file if needed.
[05:40] <pike_> user addition i mean
[05:40] <Zenji> Lilacor: XP it doesnt.
[05:40] <Lilacor> Zenji: huh?
[05:40] <meaflux> just jumped back in the saddle and I'm slipping a bit. :( I have a problem with ndiswrapper...
[05:40] <Dr_willis> mflynn,  resizing a swap parttion isent too hard either. (live cd + gparted is handy for that)
[05:40] <Tarkus> Lilacor, but while im watching it in "totem". is there some kind of save to disk thing? i wonder why i cant just do that?
[05:40] <mflynn> I have one, I need it bigger, hybernation doesn't work
[05:40] <Pelo> mflynn, yes but yyou will have to boot the live cd  to play around with your partitions
[05:40] <Lilacor> Zenji: XP it doesn't _what_ ?
[05:40] <Zenji> Lilacor:  The internets working in Ubuntu but everytime I go to Windows XP, it wont connect to the internet.
[05:40] <Lilacor> Tarkus: because totem wasn't built for that
[05:40] <nuyao> Lapinux: that's weird, just try the values i told ya, should work then
[05:40] <craigbass1976> Pelo, thanks.  Stuff on apache, but no bind.  THere's a walkthrough on the forums, but it's not working
[05:40] <pike_> ach sorry thought i was in freebsd guys :)
[05:40] <meaflux> basically my cheapie belkin card has like 6 different chipsets, so I was trying to set it up earlier.
[05:41] <Lilacor> Zenji: I thought you said it was the other way around
[05:41] <mflynn> thx Pelo
[05:41] <meaflux> and I already did ndiswrapper - m and modprobe ndiswrapper on an earlier driver that was wrong.
[05:41] <Pelo> mflynn, boot the live cd ,  menu > system > admin > gnome partition manager,   move stuff around , resize other partitons , make the swap bigger
[05:41] <Zenji> Lilacor: No I said its not really Ubuntu, but it may be caused  by it.
[05:41] <Lapinux> nuyao: ok, im looking up what the monitor can do, i will let you know if it fixes it
[05:41] <Lilacor> Zenji: it won't be caused by Ubuntu
[05:41] <Pelo> craigbass1976,   http://revision3.com/forum/showthread.php?t=84  http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[05:41] <Pelo> maybe in there
[05:42] <Lilacor> Zenji: do you have the right drivers installed for your network card under XP?
[05:42] <nuyao> Lapinux: 31 KHz to 96 KHz (horizontal) and 55 Hz to 160 Hz (vertical)
[05:42] <MacDrunk_> hey any ideas were to find a gui tool to configure samba other than swat?
[05:42] <Dr_willis> MacDrunk_,  i just got swat working. :)
[05:42] <Zenji> Lilacor: Are you shitting me?
[05:42] <Zenji> Lilacor: Well no im looking for one.
[05:42] <Dr_willis> MacDrunk_,  i know kde has a samba config tool.. of course theres editing the smb.conf by hand.
[05:42] <Lapinux> nuyao: yep
[05:42] <Zenji> Lilacor: Cant find one though.
[05:43] <Zenji> Lilacor: My brother is letting me run off of his internet.
[05:43] <MacDrunk_> well yea
[05:43] <Lilacor> Zenji: did you build this box yourself?
[05:43] <Zenji> Lilacor: Nope.
[05:43] <meaflux> anyone know how I'd remove the alias from modprobe for the earlier driver?
[05:43] <Zenji> Lilacor: Its a Dell E510
[05:43] <Dr_willis> MacDrunk_,  also saw that swat just totally rewrote my smb.conf for me..  got rid of all my comments and so forth.
[05:43] <Lilacor> Zenji: did you check support.dell.com?
[05:43] <curiogeo> Is anyone else getting this "Temporary failure resolving 'ca.archive.ubuntu.com'"
[05:43] <meaflux> it won't let me create an alias now in ndiswrapper.
[05:43] <Zenji> Lilacor: Not yet.
[05:43] <Lilacor> Zenji: why not?
[05:43] <Pelo> meaflux,  sudo modprobe  -r  name
[05:43] <MacDrunk_> so i need to reinstall swat whit synaptic
[05:43] <MacDrunk_> or what
[05:43] <Zenji> Lilacor: Well like I said, im running off of my brothers internet. He activated a box for me so I could get free adelphia internet.
[05:44] <Zenji> Lilacor: I was wondering if that had anything to do with it.
[05:44] <Dr_willis> MacDrunk_,  i instgalled it with ------>  sudo apt-get install swat netkit-inetd tcpd
[05:44] <Zenji> Lilacor: Well like I said, im running off of my brothers internet. He activated a box for me so I could get free adelphia internet.
[05:44] <Zenji> Lilacor: I was wondering if that had anything to do with it.
[05:44] <WelshPole> HOW do I get information about my CD drive's writing speed?  /?
[05:44] <MacDrunk_> hmm why do you install tcpd
[05:44] <meaflux> is there any way to undeo the ndiswrapper -m?
[05:44] <Lapinux> nuyao: will this take a restart for the new rates?
[05:44] <Lilacor> Zenji: what do you mean he activated a box for you?
[05:44] <WelshPole> It's taking 2 hours to rip a frickin' cd!!!!
[05:44] <MacDrunk_> y install all that program only tcpd i didnt install
[05:45] <nuyao> Lapinux: just restart X
[05:45] <Dr_willis> MacDrunk_,  it wouldent WORK untill i isntalled tcpd. :)
[05:45] <Lilacor> WelshPole: your hardware busted there?
[05:45] <Zenji> Lilacor: Since I used to have Timewarner televesion, he just gave me his ethernet box and I can get his internet.
[05:45] <nuyao> Lapinux: ctrl + alt + backspace
[05:45] <Zenji> Lilacor: The cable modem.*
[05:45] <Dr_willis> MacDrunk_,  also some of the how to's i read say you need to create a root password. (wich is considred a bad idea in ubuntu-land)
[05:46] <Frogzoo> WelshPole: some cd drives are being troublesome with latest drivers
[05:46] <Dr_willis> MacDrunk_,  http://www.go2linux.org/node/98   was one of the sites i read.
[05:46] <Zenji> Lilacor: Im not really sure the details but I guess it runs off of his bandwith.
[05:46] <Lapinux> nuyao: thats what i was gonna do, brb
[05:46] <MacDrunk_> ok
[05:47] <Lilacor> Zenji: I think you should check #windows
[05:47] <Lilacor> Zenji: I'm confident your Ubuntu isn't *causing* your windows woes.
[05:47] <Lapinux> nuyao: still only choice of 800x600
[05:47] <Zenji> GR
[05:47] <Zenji> Well
[05:47] <Zenji> If I could get Wine properly workin I wouldnt have to do this.
[05:47] <Zenji> Lilacor: Are you any good with getting Wine working?
[05:47] <nuyao> Lapinux: hm, very weird
[05:47] <Lilacor> Zenji: I could provide some support but this is #ubuntu not #windows
[05:47] <Salazar> Hello everyone... I just installed ubuntu feisty and I was wondering if someone could assist me with installing the w32codecs.
[05:48] <Zenji> Lilacor: What about Windows?
[05:48] <Zenji> Lilacor: What about Wine?
[05:48] <Lapinux> nuyao: yes, i dont even have 800x600 as a choice in xorg.conf
[05:48] <Zenji> *
[05:48] <Lilacor> !codec
[05:48] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[05:48] <haggard>  !w32codecs | Salazar
[05:48] <ubotu> Salazar: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[05:48] <Lilacor> Zenji: sorry, not a clue.
[05:48] <Salazar> I'll try the bot's advice first
[05:49] <Zenji> Lilacor: I would be content with staying on Ubuntu but I cant get WINE to work.
[05:49] <Salazar> I had the same problem for a while
[05:49] <Lilacor> Zenji: did you try #wine?
[05:49] <Salazar> ...but then I think I changed repositories or something and got it to work somehow
[05:49] <Lilacor> Zenji: what do you need to use WINE for?
[05:49] <Zenji> Uhhhhh games.
[05:49] <TheCougar> If i plug a flash drive into a system with ubuntu on it will it detect it right off and load it?
[05:49] <Zenji> www.infantryonline.com
[05:49] <Salazar> I just installed it cause it will come in handy
[05:49] <Pelo> Zenji, what particular part of wine can you not get working ?
[05:49] <zero-9376> can someone tell me how i can change the partition type that fdisk reports without formatting my drives, i have formatted an ntfs partii
[05:49] <Salazar> Games also
[05:50] <meaflux> well.... modprobe just hangs when I try to remove ndiswrapper now... anything special I should do?
[05:50] <zero-9376> ntfs partition as reiserfs but fdisk still shows ntfs
[05:50] <meaflux> and is there anyway to reset the alias in ndiswrapper?
[05:50] <Zenji> Polo or Lilacor: Basically... when I run one game, the window will move and my sound doesnt work.
[05:50] <meaflux> like and undo of ndiswrapper -m ?
[05:50] <Zenji> Polo or Lilacor: Wait I cant explain it let me get my pic.
[05:50] <Dr_willis> zero-9376,  if you do some changes like that. often the system dont see them untill a reboot.
[05:50] <TheCougar> never mind found a flash drive and tested it. it works
[05:50] <Pelo> Zenji, it's Pelo and try asking about that in #winehq   tell them you have a sound issue first
[05:50] <zero-9376> this is an issue from some time ago
[05:51] <nuyao> Lapinux: which graphic card do u use?
[05:51] <zero-9376> i have rebooted numerous times and even used the drive in different ocs
[05:51] <zero-9376> pcs
[05:51] <Zenji> Pelo: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v147/Zenji/InfWine.png
[05:51] <Lapinux> nuyao: its a geforce mx
[05:52] <Zenji> Ima go into the WineHQ
[05:52] <Pelo> Zenji, yah, go and ask in #winehq about that
[05:52] <rp3> ne1 know a good html editor that will run on a AMD64?  Looking for one.
[05:52] <Lapinux> nuyao: i ctrl+alt+backspace x, how do i get it back, got a blank screen
[05:52] <Pelo> rp3,  try nvu
[05:52] <Lapinux> nuyao: nm, its locked up
[05:52] <Lilacor> Zenji: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=6159 apparently it's supposed to work well
[05:52] <rp3> Pelo it will work with AMD?  Kewl..
[05:53] <Pelo> rp3,  I don'T see why it wouldn't it's just a html editor , nothing fancy
[05:53] <rp3> k
[05:55] <Salazar> I'm having trouble with deb commands... could anybody give me a brief description of what they do?
[05:55] <meaflux> is there a seperate help channel for ubuntu wireless issues? ;)
[05:55] <zacchaeus> !nfs
[05:55] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[05:55] <Pelo> Salazar, deb files are installer packages for debian and debian related distros
[05:56] <meaflux> salazar:man apt-get
[05:56] <Salazar> ...I'm installing the w32codecs... but isn't it a command... the deb command
[05:56] <Lilacor> meaflux: no, but I'd say at least half of the questions I see in here are wireless related.
[05:56] <meaflux> haha
[05:56] <Tiradin> Hebbo.... I just put a new computer together, and plan on transferring the HDD from THIS computer into that one. Can I just do a "repair" installation of Ubuntu without losing any of my files?
[05:56] <Salazar> will do man apt-get
[05:56] <haggard> Salazar: sudo dpkg -i w32codecs.deb
[05:56] <Tiradin> So that it will re-asses the hardware in its registry type thing?
[05:56] <Salazar> kk... thanks haggard
[05:56] <Lapinux> nuyao: i kept everything the same in my xorg except i put nvidia back to nv and it now has higher res
[05:57] <Salazar> I got an error with the dpkg command
[05:57] <meaflux> so anyone know why "modprobe -r ndiswrapper" is hanging?
[05:57] <Lapinux> nuyao: it gives me all the choices for screen res now
[05:57] <meaflux> do I have to unplug the card?
[05:57] <rp3> pelo no 64 bit version ;(
[05:57] <nuyao> Lapinux: Maybe try nvidia-glx-legacy instead of nvidia-glx if you have an old graphic card
[05:57] <Tiradin> Can anyone help me out?
[05:58] <m1r> ftp://localhost , no luck, after reboot , it asked me for user and password
[05:58] <Lilacor> meaflux: do you have the right drivers installed?
[05:58] <Pelo> rp3,  menu > systeem > admin > synaptic package manager  ,  search  html editor
[05:58] <nuyao> Lapinux: Don't know what it could be otherwise
[05:58] <meaflux> I do now
[05:58] <rp3> yea, but not sure which is good, oh well....
[05:58] <Pelo> rp3,  the nice thing about linux is you can try them all and it wonT' cost you
[05:58] <Lapinux> nuyao: all i did was went to desktop effects and it said you need the other driver, and i said ok, dont know what driver it installed
[05:58] <Dr_willis> !ask
[05:58] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:58] <meaflux> but I did "ndiswrapper -m" and "modprobe ndiswrapper" earlier with the wrong driver.
[05:59] <Lilacor> meaflux: oh man
[05:59] <ed1t> how do i do like list of files in folder which are not *.mp3 ?
[05:59] <Lilacor> meaflux: did you get rid of all of those wrong driver files?
[05:59] <meaflux> I just removed the ndiswrapper entry I made in /etc/modules, should I just unplug the card and reboot?
[05:59] <Pelo> ed1t,  man ls
[05:59] <Lilacor> The Lord of Murder has returned!!
[05:59] <Lapinux> nuyao: im not to worried about the desktop stuff on this machine, i have it working on my laptop... i just wanted to see how well this card would work with it
[05:59] <rp3> good point
[05:59] <nuyao> Lapinux: hm, change the driver to nvidia again and run nvidia-settings
[05:59] <ce_pth_ht> hallooooooooooooooooooooo
[06:00] <nuyao> Lapinux: it maybe will help
[06:00] <Pelo> meaflux,  just try it then you'll know
[06:00] <meaflux> yeah I uninstalled the old drive
[06:00] <Lilacor> Hi there
[06:00] <meaflux> but I think the module was already made.
[06:00] <Dr_willis> ed1t,  could do some combo with ls and grep (or learn about the regularexpressions more and just use ls)
[06:00] <jerome_> all
[06:00] <ed1t> thx
[06:00] <gamecheif> ok pl
[06:00] <gamecheif> pp
[06:01] <Zenji> Anyone know how to fix your synaptic manager when you have a broken package?
[06:01] <m1r> meaflux, just delete /etc/ndiswrapper and make process again with right driver
[06:01] <gamecheif> i need help with this rar file i have on here
[06:01] <meaflux> sweet, thanks
[06:01] <gamecheif> what do i need to do
[06:01] <Dr_willis> !rar
[06:01] <ubotu> rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[06:01] <Lilacor> gamecheif: install rar and extract the files.
[06:01] <gamecheif> yes
[06:01] <Zenji> Lilacor: How do you fix or find which is a broken package?
[06:01] <gamecheif> i did
[06:02] <gamecheif> their there
[06:02] <terrestre_away> Zenji: maybe sudo aptitude -f install
[06:02] <Lilacor> Zenji: I don't know.
[06:02] <gamecheif> now what do i do
[06:02] <m1r> meaflux , that helped me when i put driver for revision1 on card that was revision2
[06:02] <gamecheif> i went ot terminal
[06:02] <gamecheif> and typed the syntax they asked for
[06:02] <gamecheif> to*
[06:03] <cappicard> anyone got a link to a howto on getting a Lexmark Z515 printer working under 64-bit feisty?
[06:03] <Lilacor> gamecheif: 'man rar'
[06:03] <gamecheif> something installed
[06:03] <haggard> gamecheif: assuming you've installed unrar, to extract a file to the same directory, type unrar e <filename.rar>
[06:03] <gamecheif> ok
[06:03] <zacchaeus> in /etc/export does the following command /usr/local 192.168.1.1/192.168.1.100(rw,sync) .... does the / mean range or is that intended for gateway?
[06:03] <bastid_raZor> rar! are you a pirate?
[06:03] <Dr_willis> argh!
[06:03] <Pelo> cappicard, I think you are out of luck, lexmark support is not very good,  and neither is lexmark for that matter
[06:04] <Lilacor> bastid_raZor: I thought that'd be more of a binary lion
[06:04] <Lilacor> bastid_raZor: yaaar would be the pirates compression tool
[06:04] <cappicard> I can get the drivers to work when I ran 32-bit ubuntu
[06:04] <Pelo> !cups
[06:04] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with CUPS. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[06:04] <gamecheif> this is what i got
[06:04] <cappicard> but its' goofy under 64-bit... someone mentioned a 32-bit jail
[06:04] <gamecheif> bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
[06:04] <gamecheif> what is that
[06:04] <Lilacor> !nfs
[06:04] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[06:05] <Pelo> g'night folks
[06:05] <Dr_willis> gamecheif,  i think you need to clarify what it is you are trying to do and  put more info on a single line.
[06:05] <Lilacor> gamecheif: it means you're not typing in the correct commands.
[06:05] <gamecheif> DR WILLES i was trying to unrar a file
[06:05] <haggard> gamecheif: are you sure you have unrar installed?
[06:05] <Dr_willis> gamecheif,  and the file name is?
[06:05] <gamecheif> im not sure
[06:05] <gamecheif> it hasnt been 24 hourss
[06:06] <gamecheif> Windows XP Home SP2 [OEM Edition] 
[06:06] <gamecheif> sine i got linux
[06:06] <Lilacor> .......
[06:06] <punsad> does basic install include ndiswrapper?  My laptop requires ndiswrapper for wifi.  It's sort of a chicken-egg problem to get the wifi working since I have no internet connection to apt-get install ndiswrapper
[06:07] <haggard> gamecheif: at a terminal type "which unrar" (without the quotes)
[06:07] <zacchaeus> can someone decipher this statement in bash for me with NFS kernel server restart?  Exporting directories for NFS kernel daemon...                             exportfs: /etc/exports [1] : Neither 'subtree_check' or 'no_subtree_check' specified for export "192.168.0.0/192.168.1.100:/home/aferrero/Desktop/Files".
[06:07] <zacchaeus>   Assuming default behaviour ('subtree_check').
[06:07] <Dr_willis> I notice that if you use 'unrar' without it being installed - it tells you to install it. :) handy
[06:07] <gamecheif> i got the command linr agian
[06:07] <FireHazard17> punsad: its called a catch 22
[06:07] <klien5> opick
[06:08] <klien5> jakarta
[06:08] <ax> so, /etc/init.d/pcmciautils stop doesn't seem to stop my pcmcia card
[06:08] <ax> my computer freezes when i take it out
[06:08] <FireHazard17> punsad: ive had the same problem
[06:08] <Lilacor> ax: ooooooooooooooooh....
[06:08] <bastid_raZor> leave it in?
[06:08] <blueeye> hi
[06:08] <punsad> so there's no elegant solution for this i take it
[06:08] <PetitFurby> hey everyone
[06:09] <FireHazard17> i mean with having to get wifi drivers and not being able to get online to get them
[06:09] <FireHazard17> in the end i found an ethernet cable
[06:09] <klien5> opick
[06:09] <punsad> FireHazard17: that's what I'm going to end up doing.
[06:09] <gamecheif> i need this rar file open
[06:09] <BFG> whado your no if your card has linux drivers?
[06:09] <Lilacor> FireHazard17: I know how *that* is...
[06:09] <gamecheif> someone hellp me] 
[06:09] <Lilacor> !anyone
[06:09] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[06:09] <punsad> FireHazard17: it must be a political statement or something for ndiswrapper not to be in the default install
[06:09] <n2diy> BFG google for it, and linux.
[06:10] <Dr_willis> gamecheif,  and what is the NAME of the rar file? open a terminal, cd to where the rar file is at.. if its name is foo.rar, you would use the command 'unrar x foo.rar'
[06:10] <haggard> gamecheif: i'm trying, you haven't told me if the output of "which unrar"
[06:10] <m1r> !vsftpd
[06:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vsftpd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:10] <BFG> lol i don't know what card he has
[06:10] <BFG> so i don't know what to google for him
[06:10] <Lilacor> BFG: eh gads.
[06:10] <n2diy> BFG ok, sorry, I just rejoined the channel.
[06:11] <FireHazard17> cant you right click and "extract here" it
[06:11] <Dr_willis> FireHazard17,  if he dosent have the rar utils installed. No.
[06:11] <gamecheif> it says i need f - install
[06:11] <FireHazard17>  instal rar utils
[06:11] <haggard> FireHazard17, we're trying to determine if he has unrar installed
[06:12] <Lilacor> gamecheif: what does it say?
[06:12] <FireHazard17>  it says i need f - install
[06:12] <|_ocke>  got back with lke 10 tv dinners
[06:12] <|_ocke> and a deli sandwich
[06:12] <|_ocke> and a frzenpizza o
[06:12] <|_ocke> all for under 15 bucks
[06:12] <darkshiryu> #amsn
[06:12] <|_ocke> er, 15.24
[06:12] <|_ocke> i had a quarter
[06:12] <gamecheif> You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
[06:12] <gamecheif> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[06:12] <gamecheif>   sun-java6-plugin: Depends: sun-java6-bin (= 6-00-2ubuntu2) but it is not going to be installed
[06:12] <gamecheif> E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
[06:12] <|_ocke>   wsftp?
[06:13] <|_ocke> no frozen salmon hjere
[06:13] <PanzerMKZ> next time thaw it out so that it has the good fishy smell

[06:13] <darkshiryu> hello someone know how to put in groups the contacts in amsn?
[06:13] <FireHazard17> :P
[06:13] <FireHazard17> who smacked me with frozen tuna!
[06:13] <|_ocke> :P
[06:13] <PanzerMKZ> it was frozen salmon
[06:13] <darwin81> #fullcirclemagazine
[06:14] <|_ocke> i didnt initiate it
[06:14] <Lilacor> gamecheif: something is very very wrong with your system if you're trying to use rar and it asks you to install java.
[06:14] <gamecheif> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[06:14] <gamecheif> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
[06:14] <FireHazard17> Lilacor: lmao
[06:14] <Dr_willis> Lilacor,  i think hes trying to install rar.  and his packages are confused
[06:14] <FireHazard17> type sudo first!
[06:14] <haggard> gamecheif: do you have synaptic open?
[06:14] <gamecheif> no
[06:14] <Lilacor> Dr_willis: again, something very wrong.
[06:14] <meaflux> hmmmm
[06:14] <meaflux> ok
[06:14] <FireHazard17> are you typing sudo before the command?
[06:14] <gamecheif> that mesage appears when i try to do the f install
[06:15] <dho> What's the preferred printf format sting for off_t?
[06:15] <darkshiryu> oh how do you install java?
[06:15] <haggard> !java | darkshiryu
[06:15] <ubotu> darkshiryu: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[06:15] <gamecheif> i did that
[06:15] <gamecheif> it give me a blan command line
[06:15] <FireHazard17> blan?
[06:16] <zacchaeus> hrm.... im trying to mount something through NFS and it "hangs" in console after that command... what do i do?
[06:16] <gamecheif> it says i might want ot run f- install
[06:16] <Dr_willis> gamecheif,  blank return line. is a sign it WORKED. :)
[06:16] <n2diy> gamecheif: isn't that where you enter commands?
[06:16] <FireHazard17> zacchaeus: smash your comp!
[06:16] <gamecheif> yes
[06:16] <FireHazard17> err..dont on second thought
[06:16] <zacchaeus> its a new computer, i've been having problems with getting nfs to work
[06:16] <zacchaeus> hrm
[06:16] <zacchaeus> ubuntu to ubuntu
[06:17] <zacchaeus> samba wasn't working perfectly either
[06:17] <zacchaeus> could only connect by ip address
[06:17] <Lilacor> zacchaeus: I recommend you get the Oreilly text on NFS. Probably better than trying to squeeze an answer out of us.
[06:17] <darkshiryu> haggard what?
[06:17] <Lilacor> zacchaeus: No, I'm not being sarcastic.
[06:17] <|-David-|> How am I supposed to install Java?
[06:17] <gamecheif> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[06:17] <gamecheif> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
[06:17] <darkshiryu> how i do it
[06:17] <FireHazard17> Lilacor: i reccomend you sont smack mw with anymore tuna
[06:17] <zacchaeus> sigh
[06:17] <Lilacor> :-/
[06:17] <haggard> darkshiryu: read the wiki page
[06:18] <FireHazard17> Lilacor: pls
[06:18] <Lilacor> zacchaeus: sorry.
[06:18] <FireHazard17> Lilacor: it hurt
[06:18] <RoAkSoAx> gamecheif : use sudo before the command
[06:18] <zacchaeus> :/
[06:18] <Lilacor> :-\
[06:18] <darkshiryu> ok
[06:18] <gamecheif> i did
[06:18] <gamecheif> same thing
[06:18] <FireHazard17> Lilacor: it was frozen
[06:18] <gamecheif> it says
[06:18] <Lilacor> !java | |-David-|
[06:18] <ubotu> |-David-|: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[06:18] <gamecheif> i need to do some f -install
[06:18] <NemesisD> anyone know why an ide hard drive would show up in device manager (with no partition though) but not in lshw -C disk?
[06:18] <FireHazard17> stop using ubotu!
[06:19] <FireHazard17> you are taking advantage of him
[06:19] <cables> lol
[06:19] <zacchaeus> man, it's almost like a lottery, sometimes you get a mix of helpful folks and sometimes you don't
[06:19] <RoAkSoAx> gamecheif : sudo apt-get -f install
[06:19] <FireHazard17> in the butt
[06:19] <zacchaeus> i guess I won't complain, free support does rock
[06:19] <n2diy> zacchaeus: exactyl, what was your question?
[06:19] <Lilacor> zacchaeus: welp, when you get a motley crew of volunteers...that's what you gets.
[06:19] <macd> cables did you know your the 12th most active peron in here ;P
[06:20] <zacchaeus> n2diy
[06:20] <cables> macd: how is that?
[06:20] <n2diy> Lilacor: motely!?
[06:20] <FireHazard17> ive been here for days and havent helped a soul
[06:20] <cables> zacchaeus: you should try asking when more people are awake :)
[06:20] <macd> cables: http://macd.shacknet.nu/~david/IRC/ubuntu.html
[06:20] <n2diy> zacchaeus:
[06:20] <cables> macd: that's so cool!
[06:20] <meaflux> ok
[06:20] <zacchaeus> I've been having NFS problems... which may or may not be linked with samba problems
[06:20] <meaflux> well
[06:20] <meaflux> great
[06:20] <cables> macd: Ubotu killed us all
[06:20] <jessie_the_jeste> hey guys and gals.
[06:21] <macd> yeah, haha
[06:21] <meaflux> now I get a seg fault when I do "modprobe ndiswrapper"
[06:21] <cables> macd: now 15 :(
[06:21] <Ausylo> hey guys, im having some trouble getting 7.04 or 6.06 to install
[06:21] <macd> I actually figured I might end up in the top 50
[06:21] <zacchaeus> I'm trying to mount my NFS share using ubuntu official support, and when I try to mount in console it "hangs"
[06:21] <cables> macd: but this is !offtopic :)
[06:21] <gamecheif> ok i got a blank comman line
[06:21] <gamecheif> then
[06:21] <Lilacor> Ausylo: guess what questions I'm going to ask you next?
[06:21] <gamecheif> i did unrar file name
[06:21] <zacchaeus> now when I do an exportfs... it says something about subtree
[06:21] <FireHazard17> cables:  no its not
[06:21] <PetitFurby> please could anyone explain me what would say "Bring the beats up !" ? Is there 2 signification ? thanks
[06:21] <gamecheif> and another blank command line
[06:21] <Ausylo> Lilacor: heh not sure
[06:21] <zacchaeus> would you like to see the line i put in /etc/exports or is that arbitrary?
[06:21] <Lilacor> Ausylo: what *KIND* of trouble?
[06:22] <FireHazard17> !offtopic | PetitFurby
[06:22] <ubotu> PetitFurby: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:22] <gamecheif> im unrar ing this indows XP Home SP2 [OEM Edition] 
[06:22] <meaflux> ok, so now I deleted the /etc/ndiswrapper folder
[06:22] <Ausylo> Lilacor: well, with 6.06, it freezes at the hardware drivers part. with 7.04, it loads everything, then the screen goes black and it doesnt do anything else
[06:22] <meaflux> and installed the correct driver
[06:22] <haggard> gamecheif: type man unrar. For example, "unrar e filename.rar" (without the quotes) extracts the file to the current directory
[06:22] <Lilacor> Ausylo: did you do a clean install or an in-place upgrade?
[06:23] <n2diy> Lilacor: I think you confused him?
[06:23] <zacchaeus> n2diy: did you catach any of that?
[06:23] <Ausylo> Lilacor: i still have windows vista on my laptop currently
[06:23] <meaflux> but it still says "module configuration already contains alias directive" when I do ndiswrapper -m
[06:23] <Lilacor> n2diy: I did? :|
[06:23] <Lilacor> Ausylo: I'm sorry.
[06:23] <Lilacor> Ausylo: I mean, I see....
[06:23] <meaflux> and modprobe is hanging because it seg faults when i launch it afterwards
[06:23] <Ausylo> Lilacor: lol
[06:23] <gamecheif> I GET ANOTHER BLANK COMMAND LINE
[06:23] <Lilacor> !caps
[06:23] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[06:23] <n2diy> Lilacor: just now, missed it while I was typing, and I see I'm falling behinde too.
[06:24] <haggard> gamecheif: did a bunch of text scroll by?
[06:24] <gamecheif> NOPE
[06:24] <zacchaeus> sigh
[06:24] <Ausylo> Lilacor: is windows causing the problem.. loading something up when it goes to boot or something?
[06:25] <haggard> gamecheif: if you got no output whatsoever with "unrar e filename" then I'm afraid I can't help
[06:25] <Lilacor> zacchaeus: don't dispair.
[06:25] <Ausylo> Lilacor: this is a new laptop
[06:25] <gamecheif> only thing im trying to do is get my win xp backup
[06:25] <Lilacor> Ausylo: unless you have some wierd hardware in that box that messes up ubuntu, I doubt it.
[06:25] <ed1t> i installed ntfs-config but it never shows me the window where its supposed to ask me which disk do i wanna mount
[06:25] <pmj> so what's the deal with Feisty and p965 boards? I thought it was supposed to be fixed, but I can't boot my new installation on a sata disk. Grub doesn't even start
[06:26] <zacchaeus> ed1t: when you go to applications-->system tools
[06:26] <gamecheif> the last few things i have to do is unrar this and and make the file an iso
[06:26] <Lilacor> ed1t: mount it by hand then.
[06:26] <zacchaeus> you click on that, and no window?
[06:26] <linuxnub> !grub | gamecheif

[06:26] <degreseven> can anyone tell me how to install engage in feisty?
[06:26] <zacchaeus> ed1t: I just did that
[06:26] <ed1t> Lilacor, how can i do that?
[06:26] <Ausylo> Lilacor: okay what do you suggest i do? its a turion 2ghz cpu, 1gb ram
[06:26] <Lilacor> ed1t: use ntfs-3g <device name> <mount point>
[06:26] <gamecheif> so if i delete grub windows will start up
[06:26] <gamecheif> i think ubuntu deleted windows
[06:26] <BFG> no
[06:26] <Lilacor> Ausylo: first figure out what hardware you have 'lshw'
[06:26] <haggard> gamecheif: no
[06:27] <BFG> you will need to  insert your windows cd
[06:27] <BFG> and go into the recovery console
[06:27] <n2diy> Ausylo: Lilacor, being new could be the problem, linux doesn't have the drivers/mods yet. Ausylo do you know what video chip set you are dealing with?
[06:27] <gamecheif> i dont have one
[06:27] <BFG> and issue a fixmbr command
[06:27] <gamecheif> thats the thing
[06:27] <BFG> you can use a boot cd with the fixmbr utility on it
[06:27] <Lilacor> oh no
[06:27] <gamecheif> they didnt give me one
[06:27] <linuxnub> !fixmbr

[06:27] <gamecheif> i have a boot cd
[06:27] <Lilacor> gamecheif: make yourself a BartPE CD and keep it handy
[06:27] <Ausylo> n2diy: gefore go 6150
[06:27] <gamecheif> i inserted it
[06:27] <Ausylo> force*
[06:27] <gamecheif> it made a c drive
[06:28] <gamecheif> and system 32 file
[06:28] <BFG> yeah bart PE has mbrwizard which will definatly take care of you
[06:28] <gamecheif> and sme other system files
[06:28] <gamecheif> i think it was ultimate boot disc
[06:28] <Lilacor> when working with win32 systems, you should *always* have a bartPE disk around
[06:28] <gamecheif> im trying to get windows back up anyway possible
[06:28] <n2diy> Ausylo: ok, google on that, and linux, ubuntu, etc... and see what is out there?
[06:28] <BFG> have you tried just adding a grub entry?
[06:28] <Lilacor> for those *OH-S$%T!!* moments, BartPE is your teddy bear.
[06:29] <gamecheif> whats that
[06:29] <linuxnub> just fix your grub and your back in business

[06:29] <gamecheif> yeah dont know about bartPE

[06:29] <gamecheif> BUT AM I GOIGN TO STILL NEED A COPY OF WINDOWS
[06:30] <eexpress> hi, how to write a ~ file. like fopen("~/xxxx","a"), i want ~ to replace home dir.
[06:30] <BFG> not if windows is still on your harddrive
[06:30] <meaflux> fuck... I'm just reinstalling and doing this from scratch, lol
[06:30] <gamecheif> theirs 2 partcians on their
[06:30] <linuxnub> sigh
[06:30] <haggard> gamecheif: if it was already installed and working properly, no.
[06:30] <meaflux> l8r guys, thx.
[06:30] <Lilacor> eexpress: use the escape character.
[06:30] <BFG> if you wanna check if it is just mount it in ubuntu or  w/e OS you are in right now
[06:30] <eexpress> Lilacor: how?
[06:30] <Lilacor> eexpress: so \~
[06:30] <BFG> and make sure everything is intact
[06:30] <gamecheif> yeah i installed ubunto accidently over it
[06:30] <gamecheif> i think
[06:30] <haggard> gamecheif: and assuming you didn't erase it when you installed ubuntu
[06:30] <BFG> over it?
[06:30] <Ausylo> n2diy: btw, knoppix 5.0 live works perfectly on this same laptop
[06:30] <n2diy> Ausylo: I can't tell you exactly, it is a chess match between you and google! :) Try all your options.
[06:30] <macd> eexpress, ~ does replace the home dir, but that works as the home dir of the users running the program, script
[06:30] <eexpress> i test, but make error. Lilacor
[06:30] <gamecheif> yeah i think i did
[06:30] <Lilacor> eexpress: so for a file called "the space"... rm the\ space
[06:30] <BFG> are you sure, beacuse if you used the normal partition scheme it will just use free space
[06:30] <ed1t> Lilacor, that command just worked now so i have to do that command everytime i log into linux? if so how can i add it to startup
[06:31] <haggard> gamecheif: that could be a problem...
[06:31] <gamecheif> if you were supposed to click manual i didnt
[06:31] <BFG> yea
[06:31] <BFG> i think you are fine
[06:31] <Salazar> ok ok.... what i just did was add a few lines to the sources.list file and apt-get updated... I then went apt-get install w32codecs and it did some stuff, but abruptly halted to tell me that the package is referred by another package
[06:31] <Lilacor> ed1t: is it a removable HDD?
[06:31] <eexpress> macd: so how point to home?
[06:31] <BFG> hey
[06:31] <BFG> open up termianl
[06:31] <n2diy> Ausylo: Cool, gotta love Knoppix, so that is good, you know it is a config problem, and not a hardware problem.
[06:31] <Salazar> ...could somebody shoot some advice my way?
[06:31] <BFG> terminal*
[06:31] <BFG> and type in sudo fdisk -l
[06:31] <linuxnub> type sudo fdisk -l
[06:31] <macd>  ~ points to the home dir of the user executing it.
[06:31] <ed1t> Lilacor, no its my windows drive
[06:31] <gamecheif> who me
[06:31] <linuxnub> lol
[06:31] <Lilacor> !ntfs-3g
[06:31] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[06:32] <eexpress> can give a example. Lilacor
[06:32] <n2diy> Ausylo: what driver/module is knoppix using!?
[06:32] <Ausylo> n2diy: okay heh, so what should i do next.. im new to linux
[06:32] <Lilacor> eexpress: I just did. 'rm the\ space'
[06:32] <n2diy> Ausylo: what driver/module is knoppix using!?
[06:32] <Ausylo> n2diy: not sure, i ran it for only a few minutes
[06:32] <Lilacor> eexpress: or rm \~thiscrappyfile
[06:32] <BFG> yeah game chief
[06:32] <eexpress> ooo
[06:32] <gamecheif> yupp
[06:32] <eexpress> i try this.
[06:32] <eexpress> thanks
[06:32] <BFG> open terminal and type in sudo fdisk -l
[06:32] <Lilacor> eexpress: you're welcome
[06:32] <gamecheif> ok
[06:32] <BFG> and tell me what it says
[06:32] <Salazar> what does it mean when w32codecs is referred to by another package?
[06:32] <BFG> like the list of partitions
[06:33] <n2diy> Ausylo: ok, run knoppix again, open a terminal, and do lsmod, to see what module it is using.
[06:33] <gamecheif> okay idid
[06:33] <gamecheif> it ask for pass
[06:33] <BFG> ok
[06:33] <eexpress> Lilacor: error
[06:33] <BFG> enter the pass you logon with
[06:33] <linuxnub> your looking for fat32 or NTFS
[06:33] <gamecheif> ok
[06:33] <gamecheif> im in
[06:33] <Ausylo> n2diy:okay, ill be back

[06:36] <BFG> one of the computers I worked on before didn't have a cd with it, but they were able to burn me a cd
[06:37] <BFG> or you can always try contacting the manufacturer

[06:37] <Lapinux> wow, that update just hosed something
[06:37] <Lilacor> eexpress: what are you typing in to get that command?
[06:37] <gamecheif> i had 400 gigs worth of files
[06:37] <eexpress> fp = fopen("\~/axel-fault-log", "a+"); Lilacor
[06:38] <BFG> wow I am sorry about your loss.. that really sucks
[06:38] <gamecheif> luckily i put all my isos on disc
[06:38] <linuxnub> ya but you should always always always backup your data before partitioning or installing
[06:38] <BFG> personally i keep my data on a differnet drive than the OS
[06:38] <n2diy> gamecheif: thank god for backups!
[06:38] <gamecheif> yeah thank god
[06:38] <gamecheif> got a qwestion
[06:38] <eyemean> hi
[06:38] <eyemean> same here, i have 2 drives
[06:38] <gamecheif> is their a way to back up an xp disc
[06:38] <gamecheif> like with the same one
[06:38] <cables> gamecheif: you mean an XP install disk?
[06:38] <eyemean> one for docs, other for donwload and os's
[06:39] <gamecheif> you have already instaled
[06:39] <cables> gamecheif: you mean the XP NTFS partition?
[06:39] <BFG> you  can use a proram like notron ghost too
[06:39] <gamecheif> my pc didnt come with an xp disc
[06:39] <BFG> i know that there is an FOSS alternative, but the name is fleeting my mind right now
[06:39] <n2diy> gamecheif: take a look at mondo and mindi
[06:39] <RabidWeezle> Hey all, having problems with apps that need to access /dev/dsp for sound output, is there a wiki page for fixing it so /dev/dsp can actually work?
[06:39] <gamecheif> xp home was just their
[06:39] <Lilacor> eexpress: pascal programming?
[06:39] <BFG> if you were thinking about getting it from a friend that way it won't work, beuae the drivers are already loded
[06:39] <linuxnub> ya neither did mine but it should have a recovery disc
[06:39] <eexpress> c . Lilacor
[06:40] <BFG> Rabid Weazle have you tryed disabling esd
[06:40] <linuxnub> your drive prolly has a hidden recovery sector
[06:40] <RabidWeezle> esd?
[06:40] <RabidWeezle> no
[06:40] <Lapinux> does this make sense? "the program apt-get" is not installed, you can install it by typing apt-get install apt
[06:40] <eyemean> Acronis True Image is better than norton ghost
[06:40] <eyemean> i feel anyways
[06:40] <RabidWeezle> how you disable it?
[06:40] <cables> just use DD
[06:40] <Lapinux> that just doesnt make sense to me
[06:40] <gamecheif> so
[06:40] <cables> no need for any fancy software
[06:40] <BFG> gamecheif if you live near a pc club store they will probably just be able to burn you a cd
[06:40] <khin> hi im having an issue with my system, it periodically jumps 4 hours backward. i enabled synchronization with the internet which appears to fix the issue, but i dont think this solution is very robust...
[06:40] <Lilacor> eexpress: this is your program?
[06:40] <khin> my system time, rather
[06:40] <gamecheif> yeah i have a burner and evrything
[06:40] <n2diy> linuxnub: how many OEMs do that hidden directory crap?
[06:41] <eexpress> no, i just want modify axel to add some log. Lilacor
[06:41] <haggard> khin: how old is your computer?
[06:41] <RabidWeezle> gamecheif, how you disable esd?
[06:41] <gamecheif> im just need to create and iso for this windows
[06:41] <khin> its not a CMOS issue im sure
[06:41] <BFG> most of them have a hidden partition for a recoery system
[06:41] <Lilacor> eexpress: what is axel?
[06:41] <cables> gamecheif: you can't create an iso
[06:41] <haggard> khin: well that was my first guess...
[06:41] <gamecheif> and unrar it
[06:41] <linuxnub> it just contains critical backup data used together with the recovery disks
[06:41] <gamecheif> and im fnished
[06:41] <cables> gamecheif: you can create an image of the partition though, although I dunno how
[06:41] <eexpress> a download software. Lilacor
[06:41] <BFG> i believe the command is sudo /etc/init.d/esd stop
[06:41] <RabidWeezle> thanks CFG
[06:41] <BFG> but I am not 100% sure
[06:41] <RabidWeezle> BFG lol
[06:41] <BFG> lol
[06:41] <RabidWeezle> I'm sooo tired
[06:41] <gamecheif> so you cant create isos on inux
[06:41] <RabidWeezle> lol
[06:41] <gamecheif> linux
[06:41] <linuxnub> stuff like proprietary drivers unique to your system
[06:42] <BFG> you can create isos on linux using an application like k3b or gnomebaker
[06:42] <gamecheif> oh ok
[06:42] <cables> gamecheif: sure you can
[06:42] <cables> gamecheif: but you can't create ISOs of a hard disk
[06:42] <gamecheif> well then
[06:42] <cables> there's simply no such thing
[06:42] <gamecheif> no not trying to do that
[06:42] <gamecheif> i have
[06:42] <linuxnub> or just do sudo makefs blah blah
[06:42] <gamecheif> i have a copy of windows on my pc
[06:43] <Lilacor> eexpress: so you're modifying this program yourself?
[06:43] <gamecheif> i want to unrar it and make an iso
[06:43] <n2diy> What is the linux equivalaent to DOS''s debug?
[06:43] <gamecheif> so i can put it on disc
[06:43] <cables> gamecheif: there's no way to create a Windows install CD from an installed Windows copy.
[06:43] <eexpress> Lilacor: yes
[06:43] <_olaf> what's a good audio player that i can easily install on ubuntu that supports: flac, wma, ape, etc.
[06:43] <Lilacor> eexpress: that is NOT something that is supported here. go to #C
[06:43] <cables> gamecheif: you can however create an image file of the entire disk, although it won't fit on a CD
[06:43] <_olaf> like foobar2000 for windows
[06:43] <cables> _olaf: everything supports all formats supported by gstreamer
[06:43] <eexpress> c channel? Lilacor
[06:43] <linuxnub> i use amarok but xine is great too
[06:43] <FireHazard17> or a dvd
[06:43] <n2diy> ! debug
[06:43] <ubotu> For help debugging your program, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures
[06:43] <Lilacor> eexpress: yes
[06:44] <cables> _olaf: which means that to install codecs, just doubleclick on the file, and it'll work in everything
[06:44] <_olaf> ahh, okay, cableroy
[06:44] <FireHazard17> or even a blue ray disc
[06:44] <_olaf> errr, cables
[06:44] <TheCougar> lol those people that complain about windows packaging software in there OS should try ubuntu
[06:44] <_olaf> cool
[06:44] <TheCougar> on second thought...
[06:44] <cables> FireHazard17: you're taking it a bit too far
[06:44] <FireHazard17> its true
[06:44] <eexpress> ok, thanks Lilacor
[06:44] <gamecheif> so i have to find fobar2000
[06:44] <haggard> cables: i think gamecheif means he "acquired" a copy of Windows and needs to unrar it and burn it to disk...
[06:44] <n2diy> linuxnub: how many OEMs do that hidden directory crap?
[06:44] <gamecheif> yeah
[06:45] <linuxnub> just windowz that ive seen n2diy
[06:45] <BFG> most do n2diy
[06:45] <_olaf> i "acquired" a copy of windows from an elementary school i did some networking for
[06:45] <FireHazard17> say he has a mere 160gb hard drive if they double blue ray to 100gb it still wont fit
[06:45] <cables> gamecheif: well this is not the place to ask that.
[06:45] <BFG> gamechief check PM
[06:45] <cables> TheCougar: the difference is that XP takes up more space than Ubuntu for a clean install (last I checked, at least) and its bundled software is useless.
[06:45] <cables> FireHazard17: but does that matter?
[06:45] <linuxnub> HP is most notorious
[06:45] <FireHazard17> and right nowsingle layer its at 25 and dl its at 50gb
[06:45] <FireHazard17> cables: yes
[06:45] <cables> !offtopic | FireHazard17
[06:45] <ubotu> FireHazard17: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:45] <_olaf> i think XP takes up like 2GB or something
[06:45] <gamecheif> how do i do that
[06:45] <_olaf> base install SP1
[06:45] <gamecheif> check pm
[06:46] <gamecheif> dont see any options for that
[06:46] <haggard> gamecheif: it's probably not worth it, you'll probably fail the WGA
[06:46] <BFG> it should have just popped up on your secreen
[06:46] <TheCougar> cables: yeah xp is bigger, vista is a LOT bigger. but as for being useless I wouldn't really agree. web browser/media player, there not useless apps
[06:46] <n2diy> linuxnub: OEM stands for orignal equipment manufacture, so it isn't software it is hardware. I know Dell does it, who else does?
[06:46] <Ausylo> okay guys, i can get knoppix 5 to work, but not ubuntu
[06:46] <Ausylo> ok
[06:46] <TheCougar> OEM can be software as well
[06:46] <Ausylo> n2diy: there were alot of things
[06:47] <BFG> gamechief find my name in the list of people in the channel and double click it
[06:47] <BFG> then type something ok?
[06:47] <Ausylo> n2diy: 2.6.17 was the kernel
[06:47] <Lilacor> that guy has some NERVE! modifying a .c program and then trying to get us to help him compile it!! GRR!!!
[06:47] <linuxnub> they all do it
[06:47] <cables> TheCougar: this is offtopic, but I'll say one last thing: WMP is useless as far as I'm concerned, Ubuntu comes with a far better media player.
[06:47] <linuxnub> mainly the big players do it
[06:47] <linuxnub> ive seen it on Dell, HP, Toshiba, etc etc
[06:47] <cables> BFG: he can't message anyone until he's registered
[06:47] <BFG> OH ok
[06:48] <BFG> and i guess i can't either =] 
[06:48] <gamecheif> im not registered
[06:48] <BFG> how do i register?
[06:48] <cables> !register
[06:48] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[06:48] <gamecheif> hoe do yu register
[06:48] <BFG> !register
[06:48] <n2diy> TheCougar: Well, I suppose so, never thought of software as being oem, but why not? Imbedded stuff comes to mind.
[06:48] <gamecheif> !register
[06:49] <gamecheif> BFG
[06:49] <gamecheif> you have msn or aim
[06:49] <BFG> yea
[06:49] <BFG> axeclan for aim
[06:49] <gamecheif> ok
[06:49] <cables> Please register and talk about this on IRC PM
[06:49] <BFG> my nick is already registered =[
[06:49] <cables> rather than wasting time confirming contact details in a public channel.
[06:49] <TheCougar> n2diy: take windows for instance. there is an OEM version for OEM systems. it is MUCH cheaper then the retail version. but the licenseing is more restrictive
[06:50] <gamecheif> ubotu is not  a bot
[06:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is not  a bot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:50] <BFG> how is me helping him wasting time?
[06:50] <gamecheif> he human
[06:50] <alienseer23> using the live cd, is there a way to get it to just skip directly to install without going to "live cd" mode?
[06:50] <cables> alienseer23: you'll have to use the Alternate CD
[06:50] <macd> alienseer23, yeah the alternate CD
[06:50] <alienseer23> ok
[06:51] <cables> alienseer23: the only installer on the Desktop CD is the LiveCD installer.
[06:51] <macd> heh
[06:51] <_olaf> i'm thinking about making the switch to ubuntu
[06:51] <_olaf> the only thing stopping me is my audio collection
[06:51] <alienseer23> is there any special instructions I need to read to use that?
[06:51] <macd> _olaf, no better time than the present
[06:51] <cables> _olaf: well, when the channel's a bit more sane, we'd be happy to help you with that :)
[06:51] <n2diy> TheCougar: Yep, I think hardware when I think oem, but your right, I've been in linux land too long I guess?  :)
[06:51] <cables> _olaf: what about your audio collection makes it hard to switch?
[06:51] <_olaf> yeah, it does look pretty intense right now, cableroy
[06:51] <_olaf> cables***
[06:52] <_olaf> guaranteeing that it will recognize all my files, etc.
[06:52] <_olaf> finding an audio player that suits me
[06:52] <gamecheif> my msn is gamecheif@hotmail.com
[06:52] <_olaf> it's going to be hard letting go of foobar2000
[06:52] <macd> _olaf, rythmbox, and amarok are both considered to be excellent.
[06:52] <cables> _olaf: what format are they in?
[06:52] <alienseer23> _olaf amarok is pretty nice
[06:52] <gamecheif> aim is erthi
[06:52] <_olaf> FLAC, WMA Lossless, MP3, APE, OGG, SHN
[06:52] <_olaf> lots of formats
[06:52] <Ausylo> n2diy: ok back
[06:52] <cables> _olaf: those all should work.
[06:53] <_olaf> also,
[06:53] <Ryan__> heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy allll
[06:53] <cables> _olaf: however, they'll only work if you double click one of each type of file first, because the default player will install the drivers, but the jukebox won't.
[06:53] <gamecheif> ok
[06:53] <n2diy> Ausylo: so far so good, and???
[06:53] <gamecheif> so i cant iso my file
[06:53] <gamecheif> can i at least unrar it
[06:53] <Ausylo> n2diy: i wish i could get online with knoppix, but it doesnt see my wireless card.. anyways, the kernel was 2.6.17
[06:53] <Ryan__> I have a question about something that is bugging me with ubuntu, everytime I accidently pull out the ethernet cord the internet disconnects and I can't figure out how to manually reconnect it without having to reboot it everytime
[06:54] <Ryan__> does anyone know how to fix that?
[06:54] <defrysk>   Ryan__ maybe stop pulling out that cord ?
[06:54] <gamecheif> lol
[06:54] <n2diy> Ausylo: I thought you said wifi worked with knoppix?
[06:54] <Ryan__> lol but even when I hibernate it does that too
[06:54] <Ryan__> the cord is so easy to pull out
[06:54] <FireHazard17> nope i have the same problem and windows doenst make me restart
[06:54] <Ausylo> n2diy: no, i said knoppix loaded and worked
[06:55] <Ryan__> I know, windows is easy to reconnect with
[06:55] <Ryan__> u can atleast repair the connection or it does it itself
[06:55] <macd> in all honesty network-manager needs a swift kick in the behind
[06:55] <n2diy> Ausylo: Ok, what are you running now?
[06:55] <Ryan__> Im running ubuntu
[06:55] <alienseer23> !thin client
[06:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about thin client - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:55] <khin> any ideas why my system time would sometimes jump exactly four hours backward
[06:55] <Ausylo> n2diy: right now, im on vista :(
[06:55] <alienseer23> where do i go to learn more about setting up server/thin client relationships with ubuntu?
[06:55] <cables> _olaf: the easiest thing to do to see if you'll be able to make the switch is to try the LiveCD. Put a bunch of songs to test with onto an external drive, start t he LiveCD, and test the songs with the LiveCD.
[06:56] <cables> !msgthebot | alienseer23
[06:56] <ubotu> alienseer23: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[06:56] <_olaf> that's the plan, cables
[06:56] <n2diy> Ausylo: And what happens when you try to run Ubuntu?
[06:56] <cables> _olaf: Do you have any other questions before you do it?
[06:56] <alienseer23> sorry
[06:56] <Ausylo> n2diy: 6.06, it freezes at hardware drivers part.
[06:56] <_olaf> where do babies come from?
[06:56] <macd> alienseer23, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ThinClientHowto
[06:57] <Ausylo> n2diy: 7.04, it loads everything and then the screen goes black
[06:57] <cables> _olaf: hmm, where should I start...
[06:57] <omegacenti> Just used vim for the first time. I am impressed!
[06:57] <alienseer23> thanks:)
[06:57] <Ryan__> does anyone know if I can repair my connection once I accidently unplug my internet cable in the network manager in ubuntu?
[06:57] <_olaf> lol
[06:57] <Ryan__> or somethign like that
[06:57] <_olaf> (:
[06:57] <omegacenti> Are vi and vim similar?
[06:57] <_olaf> okay, well, i guess i'm going to boot into ubuntu again
[06:57] <cables> Ryan__: Windows' repair connection has nothing to do with what's going on with your system.
[06:57] <Ryan__> lol
[06:57] <Ryan__> yo
[06:57] <cables> Ryan__: that just renews dhcp and whatever
[06:57] <Ryan__> I know
[06:57] <_olaf> actually, i'm going to wait for this game to get finished downloading
[06:57] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti vim is vi improved
[06:57] <_olaf> (:
[06:57] <cables> Ryan__: this is probably more hardware-related.
[06:57] <Ryan__> ok...
[06:58] <Ryan__> I got a pcmcia card
[06:58] <n2diy> Ausylo: Sorry, I can't help you. GL.
[06:58] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: so its okay to use vim and still be 'cool'? :)
[06:58] <Ryan__> for my ethernet card for my laptop
[06:59] <Ryan__> so its prob hardware related?
[06:59] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti i use vim ;)
[06:59] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: Cool. ^_^
[06:59] <Ryan__> any network clients I could install that could help me with my problem?
[06:59] <Ryan__> where I click the reconnect button lol
[06:59] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: It is very powerful. you can do so many things so fast with it!
[06:59] <ferunandesu> Anyone know much about ATI cards?
[07:00] <cables> !anyone | ferunandesu
[07:00] <ubotu> ferunandesu: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:00] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: and so many people don't bother learning it...
[07:00] <maeth> how can i mount a ntfs disk?
[07:00] <cables> maeth: Applications>Add/Remove and search for NTFS
[07:00] <cables> maeth: you're looking for the NTFS Configuration Tool
[07:00] <maeth> cables, thnx
[07:00] <Ryan__> Im gonna go look it up anyone have any idea of the search query I should use?
[07:00] <cables> no problem
[07:00] <Ryan__> lol
[07:00] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti because much ppl prefer to work with gedit
[07:01] <Ausylo> hello all, would someone like to help me figure out why ubuntu 6.06 ot 7.04 install? it freezes
[07:01] <jba> hello people
[07:01] <Ausylo> wont*
[07:01] <jba> i hope someone can help me, my google juice seems to be off today
[07:02] <cables> jba: why don't you ask your question?
[07:02] <jba> anyone know where to get the latest ubuntu as a vmware image? with vmware tools included
[07:02] <jba> (took a while to type :)
[07:02] <holycow> what kind of question is that?
[07:02] <jba> or an easy way to get the vmware tools onto any ubuntu vmware image?
[07:02] <holycow> why don't you download ubuntu, and make your own?
[07:02] <holycow> jesus
[07:02] <Ryan__> lol
[07:02] <cables> holycow: be nice.
[07:03] <holycow> jba, the instructios to do that are on the vmware website
[07:03] <jba> holycow, i tried but i can't get the vmware tools to work
[07:03] <holycow> jba, they give you step by step instructions too
[07:03] <jba> for vid/mouse/net enhancements
[07:03] <omegacenti> RoAkSoAx: but it seems like a step back in functionality. I know I am going to start using vim to edit things like conf files
[07:03] <jba> it seems to want an older version of the kernel?
[07:03] <cables> jba: http://www.vmware.com/vmtn/appliances/
[07:03] <cables> I don't know if it has VMware Tools built in though
[07:03] <holycow> jba, all you do is mount the built in cdrom image and run the setup file like in the instructions
[07:04] <_olaf> anyone know if Unreal Tournament is WINEable?
[07:04] <Ausylo> anyone wanna help me figure out why install of 6.06 and 7.04 freeze everytime?
[07:04] <_olaf> the original 1999 one
[07:04] <jba> i have old version of the vmware woprkstation, the tools don't work with latest ubuntu
[07:04] <haggard> _olaf: search http://appdb.winehq.com
[07:04] <_olaf> cooz, thanks
[07:04] <RoAkSoAx> omegacenti thats good then
[07:04] <holycow> jba, install build-essential and install the kernel header files
[07:04] <holycow> thats all you need
[07:04] <RoAkSoAx> Ausylo where does it freezes
[07:05] <holycow> on your ubuntu vmware image i mean
[07:05] <Ausylo> RoAkSoAx: for 6.06 it freezes when its doing hardware drivers
[07:05] <Lilacor> jba: did you apply the patches?
[07:05] <jba> Lilacor, which patches?
[07:05] <BFG> so after you add the universe and multiverse repositories then you will just need to type sudo apt-get install rar
[07:06] <Lilacor> jba: there are specific patches for workstation you must apply to use workstation, search for them and you shall soon find
[07:06] <flowingfire> I need to get my PCMCIA Wireless card working, but I don't know where to even begin.  Anybody able to help?  (It's a Linksys)
[07:06] <RoAkSoAx> Ausylo is your cdrom drive old?
[07:06] <BFG> do you know if it has linux drivers flowingfire?
[07:06] <jba> Lilacor, thanks i will do
[07:06] <Ausylo> RoAkSoAx: no, this is a new laptop
[07:06] <Lilacor> jba: you're welcome. I'm using workstation 6 myself.
[07:06] <flowingfire> BFG: I checked the Linksys website, but I didn't see any there.
[07:06] <BFG> ok what model is it?
[07:06] <jba> don't suppose there is a threa somewhere that has tips for getting the latest distro (any distro) to work with vmware tools from source?
[07:06] <RoAkSoAx> Ausylo try checking the integrity of the cd then
[07:07] <jba> me on 5 i thinlk
[07:07] <jba> or player 1.0 as well
[07:07] <flowingfire> BFG: It is a WPC54GS v 1.1
[07:07] <klien5> hj.
[07:07] <Lilacor> jba: I don't know. I searched and found what I needed quickly
[07:07] <Ausylo> RoAkSoAx: how do i do that, i got these straight from ubuntu
[07:07] <khin> am i correct in assuming that vi etc are things you would only use with remote access
[07:08] <cables> khin: no way, people use the CLI all the time.
[07:08] <maeth> is there a soulseek for ubuntu?
[07:08] <RoAkSoAx> Ausylo try using another cd then.. or try installing with those cds in other computers.. i had problems like yours and it was all because of the cdrom drive
[07:08] <jba> okay guys thanks for your help time to go play with my kid
[07:08] <zero_> is anyone here who can help me with php, i know this is ubuntu server and have nothing to do with programming, but i the channel of php it's always full, so if any could help me would be great
[07:08] <holycow> jba, well on the vmweare website
[07:09] <holycow> jba, you keep on asking the same question over and over and thats okay but here are th einstructions:
[07:09] <holycow> 1. install build-essential
[07:09] <khin> but why would anyone use vi if you could use gedit
[07:09] <holycow> 2. install headers for the kernel you are running
[07:09] <cables> khin: because some people like it
[07:09] <holycow> 3. follow the instructions on setting up vmware tools on the vmware website
[07:09] <haggard> khin: if you really learn vi, you'll never go back
[07:09] <holycow> 4. restart x on your vmware ubuntu image
[07:09] <holycow> thats it
[07:09] <BFG> flowingfire http://ch.tudelft.nl/~arthur/wpc54g/ you can try that
[07:09] <Ausylo> RoAkSoAx: what about a 64bit version, i have a turion cpu
[07:09] <flowingfire> BFG: Thanks.  Taking a look ...
[07:10] <cables> khin: for instance, I don't install software from add/remove, i use the terminal. same goes for a ton of other stuff.
[07:10] <holycow> jba, its hard the first time only, after that you will look back and go, holy canoly that was easy
[07:10] <RoAkSoAx> Ausylo i have amd athlon 64 and i use a 32bit ubuntu
[07:10] <Ausylo> RoAkSoAx: okay, and what about trying a alternative cd
[07:10] <holycow> jba, beyond what i told you, you won't get any mor einfo onthis channel, no one is going to hand hold you through it, if your brain is mushy, foget about it for a few days and when you come back you will get it
[07:10] <RoAkSoAx> Ausylo yes do that...
[07:11] <Ausylo> ok
[07:11] <Ausylo> RoAkSoAx: ill try that
[07:12] <cables> holycow: don't be an ass, people will hold his hand if they want to and know how to do it. We're not like the other channels, we actually help people.
[07:13] <holycow> cables, kiss me where it doesn't shine. i didn't ask you anything and i'm certainly not interested in anything you haveto say

[07:18] <cables> !rar | CaptainMorgan

[07:18] <ubotu> CaptainMorgan: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[07:18] <holycow> CaptainMorgan, sure, just install rar and unrar from repos
[07:18] <CaptainMorgan> thanks :)
[07:18] <Ashex> anyone using mythtv for just watching videos?
[07:18] <holycow> CaptainMorgan, archiver will just be able to unrar on right click
[07:19] <haggard> holycow: not if he doesn't have unrar installed
[07:19] <holycow> *sigh*
[07:19] <holycow> please read my post
[07:19] <cables> which is the point of my/haggard's !rar
[07:19] <holycow> jesus
[07:19] <Lilacor> CaptainMorgan: I'll tell you if you give me some of your rum!
[07:19] <iceportal> hello world
[07:19] <Ashex> cafuego: how did you set yours up? just a standard one?
[07:19] <CaptainMorgan> Lilacor, arrrggghhhh
[07:20] <niuq> ok
[07:20] <BFG> anyone else in here used to run gentoo?
[07:20] <Lilacor> CaptainMorgan: I'll take that as a "No" Cap'in.
[07:20] <meekish> Is there a package available to install mod_headers with the apt-get version of Apache 2?
[07:20] <niuq> crdlb: i just register, i think..., not sure but i tried / join #php, and still could not get int
[07:20] <cafuego> Ashex: No, i have a storage backend on my desktop box, with mysql on the home server... the frontend runs on a laptop with tv out, which has the storage mounted via samba.
[07:21] <crdlb> niuq, your current nick is not registered
[07:21] <densone> irc: quick question. What do I set to make my box route packets
[07:21] <tritium> !register > niuq (see the private message from ubotu)
[07:22] <Ashex> cafuego: Ah, that's basically how I want to set mine up
[07:22] <cafuego> Ashex: The only trick was realising the frontend needs to have the media storage mounted
[07:22] <holycow> Ashex, yeah his setup is nifty.  you can also build a big 12 terrabyte box for very reasonable dollars
[07:22] <niuq> tritium: what private message?
[07:22] <Lilacor> densone:  you mean use it as a router?
[07:22] <holycow> and do remote x11 sessions with any device directly to it
[07:23] <holycow> thats what i'm building at home
[07:23] <tritium> !register | niuq

[07:23] <densone> Lilacor: yes
[07:23] <tritium> niuq: see above
[07:23] <Lilacor> densone: what protocol?
[07:23] <Ashex> hehe
[07:23] <Ashex> yeah, I've been wanting to try mythtv
[07:23] <whiskey1973> hello world
[07:23] <holycow> so i'll be able to watch from my cel (when the righ model comoes out), umpc, over the network
[07:23] <niuq> tritium: ok ok
[07:23] <densone> Lilacor: tcp
[07:23] <tritium> Ashex: it's quite nice
[07:23] <Ashex> but all the guides i find are about using it for dvr
[07:23] <cafuego> Ashex: the ubuntu prepackaged one seems just fine.
[07:23] <Lilacor> . . .
[07:23] <Lilacor> densone: what ROUTING protocol?
[07:23] <Ashex> and I just want to watch videos :/
[07:24] <cafuego> Ashex: Install it, set up ONE channel, then find the `myth-import.pl' script.
[07:24] <az7> elisa is a pretty cool media frontend for watching videos
[07:24] <cafuego> That imports avis amd mpegs into the system and adds meta info.
[07:24] <Ashex> cafuego: ah, I'll give that a shot
[07:24] <iceportal> i must say,  i've never seen an IRC chat this active before...
[07:24] <iceportal> it's kinda nice
[07:25] <DarthShrine> I have the intel 945GM chipset, and OpenGL and Beryl work fine, however I cannot do something as simple as playing a movie. For most of it, the screen is blank. Audio will play, however the actual video does not show well.
[07:25] <holycow> Ashex, after finals :)
[07:25] <holycow> lol
[07:26] <Lilacor> densone: hello?!?
[07:26] <cables> iceportal: depends :) sometimes it really sucks to be fighting with hundreds of other people to have your question answered though
[07:26] <Ashex> hehe, yeah
[07:26] <timothy> um I have a big problem... I upgraded to feisty on this comp.  and now none of my services start up automagically.  I have to do /etc/init.d/name start  like it came up in cli and I had to manualy start gdm.  worse, neither kde's service manager nor gnom's work!
[07:27] <iceportal> cables: I understand. But it's easier when XChat highlights chats directed at you.

[07:27] <Lilacor> densone: I have a feeling you don't want to use your box as a router.

[07:32] <Lilacor> I hate bcm43xx so much%!@$!@%%!@
[07:32] <BFG> if your computer is able to boot from usb
[07:32] <holycow> _nano_, i've never tried that, it should see the files as booteable i think
[07:33] <haggard> _nano_: how old is the laptop in question?
[07:33] <BFG> you can use syslinux to make it bootable
[07:33] <_nano_> BFG, inspiron 5100
[07:33] <_nano_> haggard, inspiron 5100
[07:33] <BFG> should be able to boot from usb
[07:33] <_nano_> I guess it's worth a try
[07:34] <darkshiryu> hello someone can tell me a good p2p program for ubuntu like ares?
[07:34] <Lilacor> darkshiryu: Azureus
[07:34] <haggard> darkshiryu: frostwire
[07:34] <cables> Azureus isn't that great on Ubuntu, I've been told it's the MOTU's fault
[07:34] <darkshiryu> but it is torrent lilacor no?
[07:34] <iceportal> so i'm looking for intelligent, literate, and experienced users from the Ubuntu community to help collaborate with me on a project called the Ubuntu Experiment. Basically, it's a series of tutorials and articles and whatnot, geared toward the new users and windows converts, in an attempt to help them find their way around the Ubuntu universe. If you're interested, please email me at ubuntu@gridrunners.com.
[07:34] <darkshiryu> haggard where i download it?
[07:34] <themod> Hey all, is anyone good with ALSA here?
[07:34] <BFG> i use deluge personally
[07:34] <_nano_> holycow, haggard, BFG thanks for responding ... I guess I'll google for guides regarding the same .. although I'd appreciate if you could link me to ones that you might have used before
[07:35] <alienseer23> using the alternate install, what do I put if I want to use a partition as swap space?
[07:35] <Lilacor> darkshiryu: you didn't specify what kind of peer to peer filesharing program you were looking for.
[07:35] <cables> darkshiryu: where you download anything. Applications>Add/Remove
[07:35] <BFG> themod what do you need help with alsa
[07:35] <defrysk> iceportal, you are spamming
[07:35] <holycow> _nano_, no prob, i don't have linkage but it's a start i guess
[07:35] <darkshiryu> lilacor i dont know the name of this type but its like ares or limewire
[07:35] <themod> BFG: I have two sound cards installed and I want to disable one of them. Do I need to remove an ALSA module?
[07:35] <iceportal> defrysk: how is it spam? I asked once and it's a request for help, not an advertisement.
[07:36] <alienseer23> nevermind
[07:36] <darkshiryu> but cables it isnt in synaptic
[07:36] <BFG> is just taking the card out a problem? or do yo use it in a different OS
[07:36] <cables> darkshiryu: what isn't? Frostwire should be.
[07:36] <darkshiryu> and i didnt find it in add remove
[07:36] <Madpilot> iceportal, there's already a Beginner's team over on the forum, and an Ubuntu Documentation team - might want to roll your project in with those
[07:36] <haggard> darkshiryu: http://www.frostwire.com download Ubuntu/Debian package
[07:36] <cables> haggard: isn't it in the repos?
[07:36] <haggard> i don't know: did you search for it?
[07:37] <darkshiryu> i thought it cables because i downloaded it in other computer from there but it isnt
[07:37] <cables> nope, it isn't
[07:37] <darkshiryu> thanks haggard
[07:37] <cables> !info frostwire | i guess not
[07:37] <ubotu> i guess not: Package frostwire does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[07:37] <iceportal> Madpilot: I considered that idea, and i'm still molling it over in my head. However, I've found most resources to be a bit unorganized. I want an easy introduction for new users, slow and steady instead of a quick plunge.
[07:37] <iceportal> Madpilot: But I'll definitely check it out further.
[07:37] <punsad> when I go to install updates, I get a warning that many of them are  not authenticated.  How do I authenticate them?
[07:38] <punsad> do most people just install them anyway>
[07:38] <Madpilot> IceNode, um, if you want more organized resources, how does creating yet-another-intro-tutorial improve organization?
[07:38] <cables> punsad: you shouldn't be getting that error. the only time I've gotten it is when my package system was messed up
[07:38] <haggard> punsad: did you add other repos in your sources.list file?
[07:38] <cables> haggard: good call
[07:39] <punsad> cables: I did do some apt-get install commands.  I can't imaging that could have broken anything
[07:39] <punsad> I did not add any other repos
[07:39] <cables> punsad: that shouldn't have.
[07:40] <punsad> hmm.... so I haven't added any sources to my sources.list.  Should I have?
[07:40] <cables> punsad: nope
[07:40] <haggard> punsad: no
[07:40] <iceportal> Madpilot: it's iceportal. And the specific organization of the site would be discussed with new users and with my team, in an attempt to make it the most straightforward and easy setup. I'd like it to be able to be incorporated into book form, much like The Official Ubuntu Book, with any and all proceeds going directly back to the Ubuntu Community.
[07:40] <zoidberg> guyes...how do i extract a rar file in the current directory with everything using unrar....?
[07:40] <haggard> !rar | zoidberg
[07:40] <ubotu> zoidberg: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[07:40] <punsad> haggard, cables: any ideas on how to fix this
[07:41] <iceportal> At the moment, many of the specifics are still being decided, which is part of why I'm looking for like-minded contributors. I want it to be a group project.
[07:41] <Madpilot> iceportal, sorry, tab-complete error. I'm not trying to dump on a good idea, but why don't you pursue it in the context of existing projects? DocTeam could use a shot of fresh blood right about now!
[07:41] <haggard> punsad: is this a recent issue or has it always been like this?
[07:41] <punsad> I just install ubuntu tonight
[07:41] <Lilacor> zoidberg: use rar e
[07:41] <magnetron> congratulations, punsad!
[07:42] <Lilacor> punsad: did you back up all of your important data before installing?
[07:42] <punsad> under the 'Authentication' tab in the software sources menu.  I've got two line items
[07:42] <niuq> tritium: how can i know if i am registered?
[07:42] <punsad> Lilacor: yes
[07:42] <cables> Lilacor: that has nothing to do with it
[07:42] <cables> niuq: you're not
[07:42] <Lilacor> punsad: good, that's a great first step before you mess around with a new OS
[07:42] <niuq> cables: lol, damn what im doing wrong
[07:42] <punsad> This is the third os on this laptop :)
[07:42] <k0rnz> anyone know of a good ipod video converter for linux?
[07:42] <magnetron> punsad: what are the two lines in software sources
[07:42] <cables> !register | niuq
[07:42] <Lilacor> cables: it has *everything* to do with it if users are new and they don't know how to access their old data.
[07:43] <ubotu> niuq: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[07:43] <magnetron> k0rnz: ffmpeg
[07:43] <gamecheif> ok guys
[07:43] <niuq> cables: im trying that, not sure what i am doing wrong
[07:43] <gamecheif> i got nrar installed
[07:43] <gamecheif> unrar installed
[07:43] <punsad> magnetron: Ubunutu Archive Automatic Signing Key and the Ubuntu CD Image Automatic Signing key
[07:43] <cables> Lilacor: maybe I'm looking at the wrong messages, but I thought punsad was having problems updating his system.
[07:43] <k0rnz> ffmpeg can use mencode or transcode?
[07:43] <gamecheif> now i need the syntax command to unrar the file
[07:43] <k0rnz> transcode is faster than mencode right?
[07:43] <magnetron> punsad: that is great, it should just be those two
[07:43] <haggard> gamecheif: unrar e filename.rar
[07:43] <punsad> magnetron: thanks
[07:43] <gamecheif> ok
[07:43] <haggard> also, man unrar
[07:43] <iceportal> Madpilot: It's a great idea. In fact, even though I'm going to pursue my endeavor with full force, I will also be giving back to the Ubuntu community as much as I can. Just as Ubuntu contributes to its upstream Debian, The Ubuntu Experiment will contribute source code, tutorials, and (hopefully) donations to the Ubuntu community and its sub-projects.
[07:44] <Lilacor> cables: sure, he might be having problems, he also mentioned he just installed ubuntu... and users that don't have backups of their stuff before installing a new OS are just asking for a lot of trouble
[07:44] <haggard> gamecheif: that will extract it to the current directory
[07:44] <iceportal> So many if not all of the tutorials written will end up back in the community.
[07:44] <punsad> magentron: I'm wondering if I should remove them and install them again
[07:44] <gamecheif> ok
[07:44] <magnetron> punsad, don't do that
[07:44] <cables> Lilacor: but that has nothing to do with what he's asking! That's like asking someone who wants a backup program whether they've got their networking set up right.
[07:44] <punsad> magentron: hmm... okay
[07:44] <haggard> punsad: pastebin your sources.list file
[07:45] <magnetron> haggard: why?
[07:45] <darkshiryu> i installed frostwire but when it starts only appear a white window
[07:45] <gamecheif> it said it didnt exist
[07:45] <punsad> haggard: hmm... how does this pastebin work again?
[07:45] <darkshiryu> what i do
[07:45] <haggard> !pastebin | punsad
[07:45] <ubotu> punsad: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:45] <Lilacor> cables: point taken. I still say brand new users should always have their critical data backed up somewhere though
[07:45] <magnetron> haggard, why should he paste hist sources.list?
[07:46] <magnetron> punsad, there is no reason to pastebin your sources.list
[07:46] <haggard> magnetron: because he'e getting error messages saying it couldn't authenticate updates
[07:46] <magnetron> haggard: oh
[07:46] <magnetron> haggard, punsad: i got that too, for a while
[07:47] <magnetron> haggard, then i choose another mirror
[07:47] <darkshiryu> what i do to repair this?
[07:47] <punsad> haggard: pasted it here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25062/
[07:47] <haggard> magnetron: that was my first guess
[07:48] <punsad> I didn't include the ones with ^#
[07:48] <Dev0205> Hi. Does anybody know how I can set my desktop up to have this kind of info on it. http://s211.photobucket.com/albums/bb30/satellite360/2007-06/2007-05-24_01.png
[07:48] <haggard> punsad: that looks OK, I wouldn't worry about it
[07:48] <Dev0205> On the right side that is :0
[07:49] <cables> Dev0205: looks like gKrellm
[07:50] <Dev0205> Ah ok. I thought it might have been a settings in the System Monitor app. Thx :)
[07:50] <tbrock> hey guys, I'm havign trouble with X and getting my monitor to be a higher resolution
[07:50] <zoidberg> guys i just deleted something by typing "sudo rm -rf FILE"...is there anyway i can retrieve the file back
[07:50] <tbrock> if anyone could help me I'd greatly appreciate it
[07:50] <punsad> magnetron, haggard: are you also using us.archive.ubuntu.com in your sources.list?
[07:51] <haggard> punsad: yep
[07:51] <defrysk> !fixres > zoidberg
[07:51] <magnetron> punsad: i use the mirror for my country
[07:51] <defrysk> !fixres > tbrock
[07:51] <zoidberg> can anyone help me?
[07:51] <zoidberg> guys i just deleted something by typing "sudo rm -rf FILE"...is there anyway i can retrieve the file back
[07:51] <punsad> haggard: hmmm - so you have no problems with authentication.  Interesting
[07:51] <cables> punsad: if you go to System>Administration>Software Sources, you can have it automatically choose a fast mirror
[07:51] <defrysk> zoidberg, nope
[07:51] <VoX> zoidberg: no
[07:51] <zoidberg> damn
[07:52] <tbrock> defrysk, thanks!
[07:52] <punsad> zoidberg: might you have been editing that file with vi or emacs?
[07:52] <haggard> punsad: try changing to a different mirror and see what happens
[07:52] <ferunandesu> I use an ATI Radeon x700 and I can only boot into recovery mode even with the latest fglrx driver. What's wrong?
[07:52] <defrysk> zoidberg, next time make sure to back up
[07:52] <punsad> zoidberg: sometimes there is a backup file.  Also - did you ever backup the directory that has the missing file?
[07:52] <PFA> hi how do i install ubnutu
[07:52] <punsad> haggard: I'll try that
[07:52] <punsad> PFA: did you try the install cd?

[07:57] <haggard> gamecheif: what directory did Azureus save it to?
[07:58] <gamecheif> the home dir
[07:58] <punsad> haggard, magentron: I changed to another mirror and the problem seems gone (for now).  At least the update manager is geting a lot further along without complaining
[07:58] <punsad> haggard, magnetron: thanks for the help
[07:58] <haggard> punsad: you're welcome
[07:59] <gamecheif> ok

[08:00] <Naisenu> Bah, not sure if my question belongs to you guys or the #winehq crowd ... however, can I run a VB program in Ubuntu?
[08:00] <cesar_> someone help, the new kernel update made my sound stop working
[08:00] <gamecheif> so i cd to the home first
[08:00] <net_bios_xp_cave> question...id like to update from breezy badger to feisty but im not sure how is it like other systems where it installs itself or is there commands that need to be typed in
[08:00] <gamecheif> well if i click on my name the files is their
[08:00] <haggard> gamecheif: what is the name of the file you are trying to unrar?
[08:00] <weltall> teorically yes maybe you need the vb redist to make it work
[08:00] <gamecheif> well i renamed it to ccb.rar
[08:00] <cesar_> quickly please, im starting to reconsider installing windows
[08:00] <cesar_> you dont want to lose an ubuntite?
[08:01] <bayziders> Are there any bash plugins for eclipse?\
[08:01] <Naisenu> weltall: What's the actual name of the package?
[08:01] <haggard> gamecheif: if it's in the home directory, type "cd ~" , then "ls" - you should see it listed
[08:01] <gamecheif> ok
[08:01] <Twistie> hey guys
[08:01] <weltall> it should be vb6redist try searching ms website
[08:01] <Naisenu> i'm in winders right now unfortunately (blech)
[08:01] <weltall> anyway i've found easier going in this way
[08:01] <weltall> execute the app from command line
[08:01] <iceportal> cesar_: Personally I'm not sure
[08:01] <weltall> wine app
[08:02] <weltall> and see missing dll/ocx and put them in th e app dir
[08:02] <iceportal> cesar_: but I do know rebooting fixed my sound problems. Try that?
[08:02] <NemesisD> guys im trying to run ddrescue and save files to my mounted firewire hard drive and im getting an error "read-only filesystem" no matter what i do, including trying to chmod
[08:02] <NemesisD> what do i do?
[08:02] <magnetron> is it safe to upgrade to the new kernel?
[08:02] <weltall> if the app has a vb installer it will do it all by itself
[08:02] <iceportal> cesar_: if that doesn't work, try using the Ubuntu Forums instead of IRC, because your question is more likely to get lost here
[08:02] <stiv2k> why does sudo apt-get update always show this
[08:02] <Naisenu> The only thing is I see on the Wine site that the .Net Framework is a no-go ... don't know if that affects it or not: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=2586
[08:02] <stiv2k> The following packages have been kept back: linux-image-server linux-server
[08:02] <cesar_> i tried rebooting iceportal
[08:03] <flowingfire> Hi all.  As it appears, I have the correct driver installed for my PCMCIA wireless card (through ndiswrapper).  My new problem is that the computer isn't recognizing that the hardware is plugged into a PCMCIA slot.... ????
[08:03] <noiesmo> magnetron, yes but depending on your graphics driver you may need to re install it also
[08:03] <cesar_> if i go to sound preferences, if i change the sound playback device to "multichannel playback" i hear a beep
[08:03] <weltall> naisenu
[08:03] <Zenerek> anyone have opera die on you after updating your install, I'm running dapper
[08:03] <cesar_> so my speakers are working, its just the driver
[08:03] <Twistie> live boot of 6.10 graphics is all screwed up with vertical lines, running 6600 GT, P3, not just X Bash is also suffering the problem... can anyone help?
[08:03] <weltall> it's a vb 6 or a vb.net app^
[08:03] <weltall> ?
[08:03] <magnetron> noiesmo: i use the non-free nvidia driver
[08:03] <Bishop256> i just installed ubuntu on my ps3 and i have to know how to change the screen resolution
[08:03] <Twistie> i can't do anything cuz i can't see what i'm doing
[08:04] <weltall> vb6 works as it's native .net requires the .net framework
[08:04] <Naisenu> weltall: That's a darned good question. How can I tell? It's not a program I wrote.
[08:04] <weltall> so it's a no go
[08:04] <noiesmo> magnetron, you will find you will need to reinstall nvidia after you reboot into new kernel but this can be done from the commandline so no dramas
[08:04] <weltall> well
[08:04] <Twistie> there is the hint that its trying to display becasue i get a pixel change every now and then in bash
[08:04] <weltall> hum
[08:04] <magnetron> noiesmo: how do i do that, explicitly?
[08:04] <weltall> well try executing it from shell :P
[08:04] <haggard> Bishop256: you're pretty much stuck with what you got: Sony blocks Linux from accessing the NVIDIA RSX chip.
[08:05] <noiesmo> magnetron, sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-glx
[08:05] <cesar_> bishop256: get a wii
[08:05] <Bishop256> Isnt there a way to change it from the xorg.conf tho?
[08:05] <Bishop256> haha my roommate has a wii
[08:05] <weltall> actually we don't know if it's preventing the access or we don't have the drivers for it
[08:05] <haggard> Bishop256: you can try fiddling with it, but I don't know how sucessful you'll be
[08:05] <melchior7> are there any cooler application launchers for gnome?
[08:05] <cesar_> my sound stopped working i am without music
[08:05] <cesar_> plz help
[08:05] <Zenerek> so no one has encountered opera related probs after after a complete update of dapper?
[08:06] <Bishop256> ive seen lots of ppl posting their own xorg.confs but i dont know if any of them will work
[08:06] <weltall> cesar load the older kernel it should still be on list
[08:06] <cesar_> how do i do that weltall
[08:06] <haggard> Bishop256: Sorry, I run YDL on my PS3  :p
[08:06] <weltall> when you see grub
[08:06] <weltall> select it
[08:07] <cesar_> i dont even know if i have it there
[08:07] <Bishop256> haha how is YDL on it?
[08:07] <weltall> it's 2x down + enter
[08:07] <cesar_> how do isee what kernel im dong
[08:07] <Zenerek> bishop256 i would suggest you not use any of those confs, each is different for each system
[08:07] <cesar_> im running
[08:07] <crimsun> cesar_: lspci -v|grep -i audio.  If you have an ATI SB450-driven card, I know about the problem and am fixing it.
[08:07] <Bishop256> Agreed, i guess ill just be annoyed until a new firmware comes out
[08:07] <haggard> Bishop256: it's great. wi-fi works out of the box with the newest version, and you can reboot into XNB without having to hold down the power button
[08:07] <weltall> uname -a
[08:07] <weltall> on the shell
[08:07] <Bishop256> nice
[08:07] <pagan0ne> anyone know what package will fill the dependency for gnome-desktop-2.0?
[08:08] <Naisenu> weltall: The exact program I am trying to run would be the 2nd one on this list. I don't know if you can tell better than I, which VB that uses. (http://home.comcast.net/~thot/computerized_hieroglyphics_flash.htm)
[08:09] <cesar_> crimsun:  i see 3 multimedia controllers
[08:09] <weltall> it seems vb6 by it's look
[08:09] <Zenerek> pagan0ne the app you are using to install the package should tell you what's missing
[08:09] <cesar_> crimsun: the first one says mm audio controller: intel corporation something or other. then mm controller: brooktree corp bt878 audi capture
[08:09] <cesar_> crimsun: then finally mm audio controller: creative labs sb live! emu10k1 (rev 07)
[08:09] <cesar_> is that one the one with teh problem?
[08:09] <crimsun> cesar_: well, which card are you attempting to use?
[08:10] <cesar_> i dont understand why theres 3, as far as i know, i have one sound card
[08:10] <cesar_> its a sb live! emu10k1
[08:10] <crimsun> cesar_: you have three: integrated, a TV tuner, and the SB Live.
[08:10] <weltall> wine Hierowords\ 341.exe err:module:import_dll Library MSVBVM60.DLL
[08:10] <weltall> it's vb6
[08:10] <crimsun> cesar_: now, what's the output from `asoundconf list`?
[08:10] <cesar_> crimsun: thats right, i do have a tv tuner
[08:10] <weltall> just install the dlls and you are fine :)
[08:11] <cesar_>  lspci -v|grep -i audio
[08:11] <cesar_> oops sorry
[08:11] <cesar_> Names of available sound cards:
[08:11] <cesar_> I82801BAICH2
[08:11] <cesar_> Live
[08:11] <Dr_Cokecan420> does aiglx come with 7.04
[08:11] <crimsun> cesar_: excellent.  Do you remember creating index entries for the integrated and the TV tuner?
[08:11] <crimsun> Dr_Cokecan420: yes.
[08:11] <Naisenu> weltall: Yes it requires that dll
[08:11] <cesar_> no i dont crimsun
[08:11] <Lapinux> say someone had prerelease updates checked and an update hosed stuff pretty bad, would it be possible to use and old kernel, wipe out the new kernel enty thats hosed and be able to get updates again after unchecking the box for prerelease updates...?
[08:11] <pagan0ne> err... ummm... ok, anyone have expirence compiling kiba-dock on a amd64 machine?
[08:11] <pagan0ne> anyone?
[08:11] <weltall> just input the name on google you will find it quickly
[08:11] <cesar_> i should just get rid of the tv tuner, i dont even use it
[08:12] <crimsun> cesar_: ok, then what has happened is the integrated has grabbed the primary (default) sound slot.
[08:12] <weltall> and put it on the app folder
[08:12] <Zenerek> since no one knew the answer to my last question, has anyone had a problem like where  your raid 0 array was seen as two individual disks?
[08:12] <Dr_Cokecan420> so i dont have to install anything with aiglx to run beryl perfectly?
[08:12] <crimsun> cesar_: do you use the integrated audio at all?
[08:12] <Naisenu> weltall: which is on the page, and in windows at least, you just pop the dll into your /system32 dir
[08:12] <Dr_Cokecan420> i got yes for direct rendering
[08:12] <FFForever> i have a hdb and i was wondering how can i format it and have it automount on boot?
[08:12] <pagan0ne> Zenerek: im trying to compile from source, but autogewn.sh reports it needs gnome-desktop-2.0 which isnt avalable
[08:12] <cesar_> do u have a quick explanation of integrated audio? this computer is old, im not sure what it means
[08:12] <crimsun> cesar_: you have a pci audio device integrated onto the motherboard.
[08:12] <klien7> chating
[08:12] <weltall> yes but also in the app folder if you don't want to mess windows installation
[08:12] <crimsun> cesar_: it's driven by the snd-intel8x0 driver.
[08:12] <cesar_> ah ok, but ive never even plugged into it
[08:13] <HardDisk> morning, just a quick walkin question.  Remind me how if I update the linux-headers via the update manager (2.6.20-16.29) how I can use all my current configurations ie nvidia restricted, vmware etc. with the new kernel update?
[08:13] <gamecheif> ok that doesnt work
[08:13] <cesar_> i just plug into the card on the pci slot
[08:13] <crimsun> cesar_: right, ok.  So would you like to only use your SB Live?
[08:13] <cesar_> yesi would
[08:13] <gamecheif> is it possible someone could connect to my machine
[08:13] <Zenerek> pagan0ne have you enabled all software channels?
[08:13] <Dr_Cokecan420> can you answer my beryl question please?
[08:13] <gamecheif> and do it for me
[08:13] <pagan0ne> Zenerek: yep
[08:14] <HardDisk> Dr_Cokecan420: i removed compiz and installed beryl and using it with the nvidia restricted drivers without xgl and working fine.
[08:14] <crimsun> cesar_: ok, then try this command, then reboot:  echo blacklist snd-intel8x0|sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist&& echo blacklist snd-bt87x|sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[08:14] <pagan0ne> Zenerek: theres a gnome-desktop which i have installed, it doesnt seem to be what kiba-dock is looking for though
[08:14] <Dr_Cokecan420> i see...
[08:14] <klien7> nur
[08:14] <gamecheif> can anyone help
[08:14] <gamecheif> besides google
[08:15] <gamecheif> their a lost cause
[08:15] <weltall> you just need COMDLG32.OCX and MSVBVM60.DLL to make it work
[08:15] <magnetron> !enter | gamecheif
[08:15] <ubotu> gamecheif: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[08:15] <gamecheif> ok
[08:15] <HardDisk> repeat incase anyone missed it. remind me how if I update the linux-headers via the update manager (2.6.20-16.29) how I can use all my current configurations ie nvidia restricted, vmware etc. with the new kernel update?
[08:15] <cesar_> thank you crimsun, i'll brb
[08:16] <gamecheif> ok  i need to unrar this file it very urgent that i do
[08:16] <soulwinter> Hello everyone. I just installed Ubuntu and experienced a problem with beryl. I installed fglrx and beryl like its written down in the german ubuntu wiki. when i try to start beryl, it says something like "cannot access display 0". did i forget anything?
apt-get install unrar
[08:17] <weltall> Harddisk => reinstall them
[08:17] <Naisenu> Going to reboot this puppy back into Ubuntu ... getting to the point where i miss ubuntu now heheh
[08:17] <Zenerek> paganone i just checked and there appears to be a libgnome-sektop2.0, maybe you need these libraries
[08:17] <weltall> and for vmware launch it's configuration tool
[08:17] <weltall> vmware-config.pl
[08:17] <Zenerek> oops typo i meant desktop
[08:17] <HardDisk> so there isnt just an "easy" way to update and use my current configuration huh?
[08:17] <weltall> just keep pressing enter
[08:17] <soulwinter> insmod: unrar? why unrar? :D
[08:17] <pagan0ne> Zenerek: have those installed too, infact i have everything installed i can find that refers to gnome and desktop :p
[08:18] <weltall> you need to reinstall nvidia drivers
[08:18] <weltall> and launch vmware-config.pl
[08:18] <tomer> good website to configure wireless card on kunubtu?
[08:18] <HardDisk> I was hoping for an easier fix, but alright I thought as much.
[08:18] <Zenerek> what you trying to compile?
[08:18] <weltall> (if nvidia driver didn't launch anyway)
[08:18] <soulwinter> im using the ati radeon x1950xt
[08:18] <pagan0ne> Zenerek: kiba-dock
[08:18] <soulwinter> fglrx tells me that everything is fine
[08:18] <weltall> well if you installed them before
[08:18] <weltall> it's quite easy
[08:18] <Dr_Cokecan420> is it possible to run beryl with xgl using the radeon open source driver?
[08:19] <weltall> you don't need to touch any config
[08:19] <weltall> just press enter
[08:19] <HardDisk> but I don't think there is a new restricted driver for this version of the kernel, so I'll just wait.
[08:19] <weltall> dunno i just manually install them
[08:19] <cesar_> crimsun: it worked thank you so much
[08:19] <HardDisk> yea just as well
[08:19] <Lapinux> if i have a kernel that is hosed and have my old one that works fine, can i remove the enty from menu.1st and the system.map, initrd.img, and config file for the hosed kernel without a problem?
[08:19] <weltall> i've even taken the opportunity to update nvidia driver :P
[08:19] <HardDisk> I did it from 15 to 16, just thought there was an easy fix :) no probs I'm more than capable of recompiling again.
[08:20] <pagan0ne> Zenerek: dont tell me to use Trevino's repo's either im on a 64bit kernel
 a wrong one sorry
[08:20] <crimsun> cesar_: np, glad to help.
[08:20] <soulwinter> insmod: unrar installed :S
[08:20] <HardDisk> thanx weltall
[08:20] <soulwinter> lol
[08:20] <weltall> you are welcome :)
[08:20] <soulwinter> np
[08:20] <gamecheif> i need to unrar a file i laready installed it and the syntax that i put didnt unrar it said it didnt exist
[08:20] <gamecheif> can anyone help me
[08:20] <HardDisk> have a good morning people, sorry but my work shift starts in an hour time to recompile this machine before I start working :)
[08:21] <defrysk> !info unrar > HardDisk
[08:21] <soulwinter> any beryl users here? :D if so, highlight me please :D
[08:21] <defrysk> !info unrar > gamecheif
[08:21] <defrysk> sorry
[08:21] <pagan0ne> soulwinter: i use beryl whats up?
[08:21] <HardDisk> :)
[08:21] <gamecheif> what
[08:21] <HardDisk> freudian slip there defrysk
[08:21] <Ausylo> Hey guys, anyone wanna help with getting wireless to work on ubuntu?
[08:21] <gamecheif> dont know what that mean
[08:21] <Zenerek> kiba-dock actually this is first time i heard of it
[08:21] <Ausylo> fresh install
[08:21] <HardDisk> Ausylo: tried madwifi?
[08:21] <AnAnt> which package includes ACL commands ?
[08:21] <pagan0ne> Zenerek: its eye candy....
[08:21] <Zenerek> and the channel too
[08:21] <defrysk> hehe HardDisk
[08:21] <Ausylo> harddisk:no i havent
[08:22] <soulwinter> pagan0ne: beryl says something like it cannot find monitor 0, i dunno what this means. fglrx is definitely working and i can also start compiz (what for some reasons wont load any other themes :S)
[08:22] <HardDisk> Ausylo: madwifi.org very good for wifi + ubuntu
[08:22] <Zenerek> well i did not see it in the repo's
[08:22] <HardDisk> only if the windows ndiswrapper doesnt work
[08:22] <Ausylo> HardDisk: is that a forum?
[08:22] <pagan0ne> soulwinter: well im no expery, but, i have a good guide that worked for me.... gimme a sec, ill get it for you
[08:22] <HardDisk> no Ausylo
[08:22] <HardDisk> it's software
[08:23] <soulwinter> alright pagan0ne
[08:23] <weltall> does anyone know very well nfs with ubuntu?
[08:23] <Ayabara> I run a dual monitor setup. Is there a hotkey for moving focus between monitors?
[08:23] <Ausylo> HardDisk: ah, so i gotta throw it on a cd to get it onto my ubuntu for now
[08:23] <cesar_> on another note, can anyone recommend a good development environment? one thing that windows has going for it is visual studio is pretty neat
[08:24] <Ausylo> HardDisk: is it easy to navigate? im a linux n00b
[08:24] <HardDisk> Ausylo: well I think the repository has it.
[08:24] <HardDisk> just search for madwifi
[08:24] <Ausylo> ok
[08:24] <HardDisk> if not on the page it tells you how to install it and I think I remember it shows for ubuntu users
[08:25] <yigal> does anyone here use a blackberry?
[08:25] <Zenerek> pagan one just google there appears to be many guides oit
[08:25] <yigal> For a smartphone/pda not to eat.
[08:25] <weltall> lol
[08:25] <HardDisk> smartphone, UIQ ftw
[08:26] <yigal> HardDisk: :) crackberries are fun to play with
[08:26] <HardDisk> :)
[08:26] <cesar_> does anyone use qt?
[08:26] <cinvoke> are there any ide's good for coding java and c++ in for ubuntu?
[08:26] <NemesisD> im trying to use ddrescue to recover some files from a hard drive onto a firewire drive and im getting an error read only filesystem
[08:26] <yigal> cinvoke: depends on the def. of good. from eclipse to vim?
[08:26] <cesar_> i second cinvoke's question, i'd really liek to find something decent
[08:26] <magnetron> cinvoke: eclipse is good
[08:26] <weltall> eclipse it's good
[08:26] <cesar_> does eclipse work with c++?
[08:26] <weltall> is*
[08:26] <Zambezi> Anyone from China here? Or know the language?
[08:26] <magnetron> cesar_: yes
[08:26] <pagan0ne> soulwinter: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/02/06/install-beryl-on-ubuntu-feisty-with-aiglx-for-nvidia-ubuntu-704/
[08:26] <weltall> it works with almost everything
[08:27] <cesar_> when i click new project all it says is java this and java that
[08:27] <cesar_> what do i do about c
[08:27] <magnetron> !zh | Zambezi
[08:27] <ubotu> Zambezi: For Ubuntu help in Chinese  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk
[08:27] <weltall> you need to install it's extensions
[08:27] <cesar_> and how is that done
[08:27] <cinvoke> is eclipse a full gui like jgrasp, or is it more like emacs?
[08:27] <Zambezi> magnetron, I need to track a packages I ordered from China. :-P
[08:27] <Xenguy> cinvoke: the guys at work use Eclipse for Java ...
[08:27] <soulwinter> pagan0ne: ill take a look, but i guess i did it right cuz i read a tutorial on the official german ubuntu wiki :S
[08:27] <weltall> well i did it years ago so i don't remember right now i'm using kdevelop
[08:27] <soulwinter> pagan0ne: thanks anyway dude
[08:27] <pagan0ne> soulwinter: i left out the line load "dbe" and it works finr for me, i had trouble when i added it
[08:28] <Xenguy> cinvoke: not sure if it works for C+ also
[08:28] <Icehawk78> Is there a program for reading/parsing the data in a binary file that comes with or is available for Ubuntu on the command line?
[08:28] <magnetron> cesar_: there is some plugins, you can install them with synaptic. they are called CDT something
[08:28] <cinvoke> Xenguy: thanks for info, ill try it out
[08:28] <pagan0ne> soulwinter: well i try, im no guru like the rest of them here, just another luser with a problem i cant solve :D
[08:28] <weltall> http://www.eclipse.org/cdt/
[08:28] <yigal> eclipse-cdt this seems to be the right package for C++
[08:29] <alienseer23> if an installation is interupted, is there a way to pick up where it left off, or is it best to just restart it?
[08:29] <Lapinux> if someone wanted to edit the kernel list in grub wouldnt they modify /boot/grub/menu.1st ?
[08:29] <Zenerek> lol tell me about it i got 4 probs myself
[08:29] <magnetron> cesar_: aptitude install eclipse-cdtr
[08:29] <yigal> alienseer23: it depends
[08:29] <magnetron> cesar_: aptitude install eclipse-cdt*
[08:29] <yigal> aptitude install eclipse-cdt
[08:29] <cesar_> thank you *
[08:29] <haggard> Icehawk78: cat -v binary_file will safely display binary files
[08:30] <cesar_> anyone here do Qt development?
[08:30] <sjck> Moin. :)
[08:30] <yigal> cesar_: probably not because we are using ubuntu
[08:30] <Madpilot> cesar_, you might have better luck in #kubuntu for Qt questions
[08:30] <cesar_> whats the equivalent for ubuntu?
[08:31] <Icehawk78> haggard - is there a similar escpe for using differ on it?
[08:31] <Madpilot> cesar_, GTK
[08:31] <soulwinter> pagan0ne: this is exactly the way ive done it. btw whats ur problem? :p
[08:31] <haggard> Icehawk78: I'm not sure
[08:32] <weltall> i've a strange problem with nfs altough the lines for / and /media/hdb1 (i need to mount a partition on my hd from nfs) are the same (http://rafb.net/p/8RMS1B49.html) i can't get it to mount /media/hdb1 i just get access denied, while mounting / works but i can't get on those partitions
[08:32] <pagan0ne> soulwinter: im trying to compile kiba-dock for my amd64 kernel, and im hung at a dependency for gnome-desktop-2.0 , i have installed all packages that refer to either gnome or desktop, and no luck
[08:32] <Icehawk78> Hmm... I'm trying to compare two binary files that should be almost identical, in order to find the difference between them.
[08:32] <weltall> oh it's /media/hdb1 not /media/sdb1
[08:32] <yigal> Icehawk78: diff doesn't work?
[08:33] <gamecheif> man can anyone help me with this rar file
[08:33] <pagan0ne> soulwinter: i think i just got it solved... i needed to install gnome-desktop-dev
[08:33] <yigal> gamecheif: depends on what you want to do with it
[08:33] <Icehawk78> I tried just catting the binary into a text file, and running diff on those, but it cam back with almost everything as beig different. And running diff on the binaries just gives the shortened version
[08:33] <v3n0m`> gamecheif: how so?
[08:33] <weltall> unrar x rarfile
[08:34] <gamecheif> i have this unrare file
[08:34] <yigal> Icehawk78: when you look at the files initially they appear identical
[08:34] <yigal> Icehawk78: ?
[08:34] <gamecheif> it wont unrar in the terminal it says it doesnt exist
[08:34] <hgh> I had a folder with all my music on an ntfs partition and moved it to an ext3 partition which messed up the filenames so I got convmv and converted them to utf-8 but now it's just wrong in another way.  for example is  is there any way to automatically replace all the  with  and so on for  and  too?
[08:34] <weltall> were did you put unrar?
[08:34] <gamecheif> uh i didnt
[08:34] <gamecheif> i did the syntax in the unrar
[08:35] <gamecheif> in the terminal
[08:35] <Icehawk78> yigal - I know what is in the two files, so I would think that they *should* be almost identical. They are too large right now for me to be able to tell if they actually are or not.
[08:35] <weltall> ?
[08:35] <gamecheif> and it installed itself
[08:35] <weltall> maybe it said how to install it
[08:35] <Ausylo> HardDisk: not seeing it
[08:35] <yigal> Icehawk78: but did you actually open a text browser and view the .bin files?
[08:35] <cesar_> whats a perspective
[08:35] <yigal> Icehawk78: it could help?
[08:36] <pagan0ne> gamecheif: download the rar file to your drive, in terminal, navigate to the location of the rar file, unrar -e FiLe-NaMe-Is-CaSe-SenSiTiVe
[08:36] <gamecheif> Cannot open ccb.rar
[08:36] <gamecheif> No such file or directory
[08:36] <gamecheif> No files to extract
[08:36] <weltall> ah well
[08:36] <weltall> then it's another problem
[08:36] <gamecheif> how do i navigate to it
[08:36] <weltall> cd dir
[08:36] <yigal> gamecheif: all you need to do is "unrar -e "a few letters" <tab><tab>" for autocompletion
[08:36] <Madpilot> gamecheif, is it "ccb.rar", or CCb.rar, or what? Case matters in Linux
[08:37] <pagan0ne> game cd /home/MyUser/WhereTheFileIs
[08:37] <Naisenu> weltall, What was the name of the vb package ... now that i'm in ubuntu again
[08:37] <gamecheif> ccb.rar
[08:37] <pagan0ne> gamecheif:  cd /home/MyUser/WhereTheFileIs
[08:37] <yigal> gamecheif: if you use unrar you should be able to use bash completion
[08:37] <Icehawk78> yigal - I suppose that could be an issue. The files don't appear to be the same at all when I just vi them.
[08:37] <Zenerek> gamecheif: i use winrar via wine
[08:37] <P_Kable> Hi there
[08:37] <gamecheif> ok
[08:37] <gamecheif> the file is on my desktop
[08:38] <P_Kable> is there a log of all the commands typed in the console ?
[08:38] <gamecheif> ok
[08:38] <gamecheif> see the thing with wine
[08:38] <yigal> Icehawk78: yes, they do the same thing but were built with different parameters or something else like this
[08:38] <gamecheif> i cant pt any thing on the partcian where unbuntu is
[08:38] <yigal> Icehawk78: well there you go, what do you really want to do by comparing them?
[08:38] <Icehawk78> I would have thought they were built differently unless they are encrypted.
[08:38] <gamecheif> i have c and z particians
[08:38] <Madpilot> gamecheif, if you've got the unrar package installed, just double-click on the rar file, that should open the archive-manager
[08:38] <weltall> copy http://www.ascentive.com/support/new/images/lib/COMDLG32.OCX and http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvbvm60 in the folder of the app
[08:38] <weltall> and you are done
[08:38] <yigal> Icehawk78: I mean what is your final goal?
[08:39] <pagan0ne> gamecheif: are you loaded into ubuntu right now? or are you in windows? have you installed ubuntu to disk yet? or are you still running off the live-cd?
[08:39] <gamecheif> see the fiile is windows
[08:39] <gamecheif> i renamed it to ccb.rar
[08:39] <gamecheif> i accidently copied over eindows
[08:39] <gamecheif> all my files are gone
[08:40] <yigal> gamecheif: well that should not be a problem unrar might choke but other than that not much
[08:40] <Zenerek> anyway i use winrar via wine because i have some password protected files and have not been able to get the file roller to input the password and unlock them
[08:40] <pagan0ne> gamecheif: im not sure what you did, but it sounds like you hoased your windows system
[08:40] <gamecheif> yeah i did
[08:40] <Icehawk78> Basically, I was hoping to be able to understand the structure in order to be able to manipulate the information in the file, without knowing how the file is specifically written in the first place. It's a file created by a gaming system, and I was hoping to be able to edit it. It would appear that I'm simply out of my depth right now.
[08:40] <gamecheif> but i had a boot cd
[08:41] <gamecheif> and i think it created a partcian rivw
[08:41] <yigal> Icehawk78: as a beginning I would ask how large of a bin file are we talking about?
[08:42] <Icehawk78> It's 100 kb, almost exactly
[08:42] <Zenerek> ***pagan0ne so you found the file?
[08:42] <yigal> Icehawk78: that is quite large to analyze in any meaningful way unless you know what you are looking for.
[08:42] <pagan0ne> gamecheif: i dont mean to sound insulting, but it sounds like you would be better off taking your computer to a professional to fix it for you, unless you want to reformat and install windows or Ubuntu from scratch
[08:42] <cesar_> does gtk have a socket toolkit?
[08:42] <pagan0ne> Zenerek: yeah, it works
[08:42] <v3n0m`> you can use sudo apt-get install p7zip p7zip-full
[08:42] <Icehawk78> yigal - And to make matters worse, I have just found the file the files *are* encrypted, too.
[08:43] <gamecheif> i wanted to do that
[08:43] <cesar_> err utility library
[08:43] <gamecheif> reformat
[08:43] <gamecheif> i have nothing to loose
[08:43] <gamecheif> this is why
[08:43] <Zenerek> great, if only my probs were so easy
[08:43] <gamecheif> im trying to unrar this file
[08:43] <yigal> Icehawk78: well, that will make a difference :).  I imagine you don't know what kind of encryption :)
[08:43] <pagan0ne> Zenerek: whats your problem?
[08:43] <gamecheif> its windows xp home
[08:43] <Icehawk78> yigar: Nope. I suppose that might be a minor roadblock ;-)
[08:44] <v3n0m`> gamecheif: were you able to open the file?
[08:44] <gamecheif> no
[08:44] <gamecheif> still cant
[08:44] <gamecheif> dont know what wrong
[08:44] <gamecheif> i have unrar installed
[08:44] <yigal> Icehawk78: are you trying to get wine to use it?
[08:44] <Zenerek> ***pagan0ne let's start with #1 trying to install ubuntu on a second machine with a promise fasttrak tx2000, prob is it sees the raid 0 array as two drives
[08:44] <niuq> how can i know if my name it is registered?
[08:45] <niuq> i just tried to, not sure if i did it
[08:45] <pagan0ne> gamecheif: if your running off the ubuntu live cd, then you'll need to install ubuntu to disc first before you can unrar the file, if your not then what are you currently running?
[08:45] <pagan0ne> Zenerek: yeah i overheard that, and quietly slid past as thats way above me
[08:45] <geet> hello, i have a simple question. how can i create a very large empty file rather quickly? dd works but is slow. i notice some programs like VirtualBox can create 4 GB files instantly, how are they doing this?
[08:45] <yigal> pagan0ne: why do you say that, this is not true, he needs free disk space not necessarily to install on the hd?
[08:45] <gamecheif> i have installed unbuntu in hdd i installed it over windows im trying to get windows back i dont have a windows cd
[08:46] <void^> geet: use dds seek option
[08:46] <yigal> gamecheif: what do you mean "over windows"?
[08:46] <gamecheif> like
[08:46] <gamecheif> i installed look
[08:46] <gamecheif> ill show you
[08:46] <Zenerek> ***pagan0ne hahahah, yeah i've beein asking on this channel for awhile now, # 2 i updated my dapper install the other day, it killed opera, i can get it to work again
[08:46] <pagan0ne> yigal: if he's running off livecd, and has downloaded the file, his virtual disk is about full, and in my expirence ubuntu livecd doesnt like dealing with large files
[08:46] <slackmagic> gamecheif: mind if I pm you?
[08:46] <niuq> how can i know if my nick it's registered?
[08:46] <RoC_MM> gamecheif, take the system offline...any time it is running you will be decreasing your chances of recovering files.
[08:46] <Icehawk78> yigal: I'm not sure I understand your question regarding wine
[08:47] <HorizonXP> hey guys
[08:47] <RoC_MM> gamecheif, you won't be able to recover a working windows install..but you will be able to recover some files.
[08:47] <gamecheif> ok
[08:47] <HorizonXP> i ordered a dell inspiron 640m that should be coming this week
[08:47] <gamecheif> i have this boot cd
[08:47] <yigal> pagan0ne: It really depends on ram, on my 512mb ram machine yes on a 2gb creature not necessarily ?
[08:47] <HorizonXP> it's gonna have a Core 2 Duo T7200
[08:47] <pagan0ne> Zenerek: well MY answer to that would be to get firefox :D
[08:47] <punsad> which packages to install to play mp3?
[08:47] <HorizonXP> my question is, how does linux handle multiple cores? will it be significantly better?
[08:47] <gamecheif> that i dl'ed today it particaned a c drive with windows system 32
[08:48] <HorizonXP> also, does Ubuntu have good 64-bit support?
[08:48] <bayziders> For some reason I don't have my progress bar when I boot and shut down. How do I get it back?
[08:48] <yigal> Icehawk78: what are you trying to do with the bin, if you feel uncomfortable telling me don't worry about it but it might make the whole process easier
[08:48] <pagan0ne> yigal: i am running w/ 4Gb ram, and i had trouble downloading winxp pro, unzipping it (1.4 ish GB between the zip and the iso
[08:48] <Zenerek> ***pagan0ne no offense to firefox, but opera is smaller(so they say) and more powefull, it's my fave
[08:48] <niuq> how can i write over my ntfs partition?
[08:48] <Ausylo> what do you guys recommend, 6.06 LTS or 7.04 ?
[08:48] <bayziders> 7.04
[08:48] <pagan0ne> Zenerek: i know, thats my way of saying that i cant help ya there either
[08:48] <yigal> pagan0ne: yes, I agree this is a lot of for 4gb of ram
[08:48] <Lapinux> i accidently had "prerealease" updates selected and it hosed my system, so i went back to an old kernel, removed the entry from grub and am using an old kernel that works, i've since uncheck the "prerelease" updates box and want to update my sytem agian but its telling me im up to date.. what do i need to do to get it to update?
[08:48] <Ausylo> whats the major difference
[08:48] <punsad> which packages to install to play mp3?
[08:49] <Madpilot> ubotu, mp3 | punsad
[08:49] <ubotu> punsad: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[08:49] <RoC_MM> Ausylo, the LTS release is for people who don't want or need the latest and greatest...it will be around and supported for a while...if you just want the regular new thing then 7.04 works great for me and has lots of improvements over older releases.
[08:49] <Icehawk78> yigal: It's a saved game file for my Wii video game console. Right now, I'm mostly just trying to figure out the structure of the file, with the hopeful future goal of being able to edit the file.
[08:49] <yigal> punsad: lame and lame-extras
[08:49] <Zenerek> ***pagan0ne hahah, yeah i knew that, but i have to try, funny thing i never ask much for help
[08:49] <pagan0ne> yigal: my point is, that even with alot of ram, it can be filled up quickly if he's running off livecd trying to do it
[08:50] <niuq> how can i write over my ntfs partition?
[08:50] <pagan0ne> Zenerek: i ask, usually dont get anything that helps me, solve the problem on my own, and am back inside a week
[08:50] <yigal> Icehawk78: I am really not sure in this area, gl :)
[08:50] <RoC_MM> niuq, like erase the hard drive....or resize or delete a partition?
[08:50] <yigal> Icehawk78: you will do it
[08:50] <niuq> RoC_MM: like saving a file there
[08:51] <RoC_MM> see if you see it in Computer.
[08:51] <RoC_MM> Computer is under the Places menu at the top of the screen,.
[08:51] <pagan0ne> is there a way to just install _EVERYTHING_ in the universe directory? lol
[08:51] <Naisenu> weltall: I must need something to make this run yes? I get error: "Cannot open /home/carissa/Desktop/HieroWord34/Hierowords341.exe: No application suitable for automatic installation is available for handling this kind of file." (Yes I put the .ocx & .dll in the same folder.)
[08:51] <m1chael> when i view large pages in firefox (i.e. myspace pages) ... firefox gets extremely slow.. can anyone give me some hints on what to google or how to fix this?
[08:51] <Zenerek> ***pagan0ne i can for the most part fix my own probs, i am stubborn and refuse to ask for help usually, but i've found linux to be taxing, but i still don't ask much for help
[08:51] <bic> that would take a lot of space
[08:51] <Icehawk78> yigal: Thanks for trying. lol. I wasn't expecting anyone necessarily to be able to help in this particular area, I was just checking to see if I could figure out anything I may have missed.
[08:51] <niuq> RoC_MM: any clue?
[08:52] <bayziders> For some reason I don't have my progress bar when I boot and shut down. How do I get it back?
[08:52] <weltall> you need wine
[08:52] <yigal> m1chael: use epiphany :)
[08:52] <RoC_MM> Yeah I said something niuq ...
[08:52] <pagan0ne> bic: i was making tha comment out of frustration, but im sure i have the space... lol  2 500Gb Drives
[08:52] <Naisenu> ah you were using wine :)
[08:52] <yigal> m1chael: it does seem to be faster, if you are using GNOME
[08:52] <weltall> well  that's the only way right now :P
[08:52] <niuq> RoC_MM: ...? you havent...
[08:52] <niuq> RoC_MM: .i am missing messages?
[08:52] <Ausylo> when setting up ubuntu, it doesnt find my router
[08:52] <m1chael> yeah im using gnome
[08:52] <Ausylo> on a wireless connection
[08:52] <m1chael> should i use kde?
[08:53] <RoC_MM> pagan0ne, some packages replace other packages, there might be a way but you almost defianntely don't need to do it...nobody does that.
[08:53] <yigal> m1chael: then check out epiphany
[08:53] <m1chael> okay
[08:53] <Naisenu> Weltall: Do you run it from the command line or double-click the icon?
[08:53] <RoC_MM> niuq, I just didn't say your name...click Places than Computer.
[08:53] <weltall> i've tried from command line
[08:53] <pagan0ne> RoC_MM: i know, im just frustrated trying to compile kiba from source and not having help with the deps... lol i was only kidding
[08:53] <yigal> m1chael: epiphany-browser  epiphany-extensions
[08:53] <weltall> but normally i do also a double click
[08:53] <niuq> RoC_MM: ohh sorry
[08:54] <niuq> RoC_MM: ok done
[08:54] <Zenerek> ***pagan0ne yeah there is a way just click ctrll+a(in synaptic) and then apply the install and hope you're not stuck on a dialp modem like me
[08:54] <RoC_MM> pagan0ne, it is possible to grab the source package for that no?
[08:54] <yigal> pagan0ne:  has that program improved over half a year ago?
[08:54] <weltall> if i do a double click it can't find it's file
[08:54] <weltall> s
[08:54] <Naisenu> is it just: "wine /path/to/file" - require any switches?
[08:54] <RoC_MM> pagan0ne, like the source package from the repo?
[08:54] <yigal> pagan0ne: I mean kiba?
[08:54] <rickjames> hi... i just installed ubuntu yesterday and i got frustrated with the limitedness of it all because i have to use proprietary restricted nvidia drivers.  then my x windows wouldn't start and i had to use the bash shell. i ended up figuring out how to run a buffer overflow attack thingy on my own system, eventually corrupted the whole HDD and had to reinstall today.  right now if you type man +k undocumented in your console you can see the man
[08:54] <rickjames> page created from the 7 proprietary nvidia packages installed on my system...  there was a command at some point that told me about the mono-project...   i'm honestly just trying to figure out what the hell i did to my system yesterday....
[08:54] <punsad> anyone know what causes beryl to not run windows manager correctly?  All my X apps just hang in space without any window manager when I select 'beryl'
[08:54] <weltall> cd /path/to/file
[08:54] <weltall> wine executable
[08:54] <pagan0ne> yigal: i dont know yet... lol still fighting
[08:54] <weltall> just to be sure as when i do a double click i get a file open error
[08:54] <Naisenu> okay that should be easy enough ... letting SPM install wine now
[08:55] <rickjames> well yesterday = thursday now...very little sleep you see...
[08:55] <pagan0ne> RoC_MM: not that i can see, i dont see any kiba packages in adept after i added the repo and updated my local list
[08:55] <yigal> pagan0ne: I compiled it about a half year ago, it takes a little effort but it didn't seem worth it.  I would give you my deb or config file but I through the lot out it really wasn't worth it
[08:55] <yigal> pagan0ne: s/through/threw excuse me
[08:55] <niuq> RoC_MM: ok yeah i see the ntfs partition, but the thin is, it's only read-ony disk
[08:55] <pagan0ne> yigal: well i saw a video on youtube with beryl and kiba-dock installed, and it looked pretty slick
[08:56] <niuq> RoC_MM: ok yeah i see the ntfs partition, but the thing*** is, it's only read-ony disk
[08:56] <bayziders> For some reason I don't have my progress bar when I boot and shut down. How do I get it back?
[08:56] <niuq> RoC_MM: and i'd like to write over that partition
[08:56] <marquinho64> someone can give me tokens please?
[08:56] <yigal> pagan0ne: it looks slick. the problem is kiba dock is really easily controllable and so everything is flying this way and that most of the time
[08:56] <RoC_MM> !ntfs > niuq
[08:56] <yigal> pagan0ne: excuse me "not really controllable"
[08:57] <HorizonXP> hey, how's Ubuntu's 64 bit support on the Core 2 Duo?
[08:57] <niuq> !ntfs
[08:57] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[08:57] <niuq> !ntfs-3g
[08:57] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[08:57] <Zenerek>  Naisenu just remember that between anyspace in a name to add \\ like this        / that\\and/with/
[08:57] <rickjames> not quite perfect horizon, i learned how to run a buffer overflow attack on my own system yesterday and fucked it pretty hard.
[08:57] <RoC_MM> HorizonXP, Core 2 isn't 64-bit I don't think.
[08:57] <rickjames> and thts what i use
[08:57] <marquinho64> how i can get tokens?
[08:57] <haggard> !ohmy | rickjames
[08:57] <ubotu> rickjames: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:57] <rickjames> on my laptop
[08:57] <yigal> rickjames: does that work for just one terminal or the whole machine?
[08:58] <HorizonXP> RoC_MM: According to Wikipedia, it is
[08:58] <RoC_MM> marquinho64, like for what? Arcade tokens?
[08:58] <Naisenu> autocomplete does that for me :D
[08:58] <rickjames> er sorry bout that :-/
[08:58] <Naisenu> ah frell the blasted printer error
[08:58] <rickjames> er...any terminal i use really. i can just run one of many commands, hit esc a few times, and immediately be root user.
[08:58] <RoC_MM> HorizonXP, the kernel supports SMP for like forever.
[08:58] <pagan0ne> yigal: well ill see when i get done fighting, if i dont just fsck it first
[08:58] <RoC_MM> Oh.
[08:58] <RoC_MM> 64-bit.
[08:58] <marquinho64> to download games on direct download site
[08:58] <RoC_MM> Just try it HorizonXP ...get the livecd.
[08:59] <rickjames> yeah horizon, it will work.
[08:59] <magnetron> marquinho64: stop begging for tokens
[08:59] <Naisenu> program is a bit of a bugger in that it always wants a printer installed or it errors out
[08:59] <rickjames> just don't do silly stuff like i did
[08:59] <HorizonXP> RoC_MM: Well, I won't have the laptop until later this week. I'm just worried about driver and sotware support
[08:59] <marquinho64> why?
[08:59] <RoC_MM> marquinho64, what does that have to do with ubuntu?
[08:59] <Lapinux> anyone know how ubuntu knows if your system is up to date?
[08:59] <yigal> rickjames: shoot where can I get this info, I would like to make sure it can't easily happen on my system
[08:59] <magnetron> !support | marquinho64
[08:59] <ubotu> marquinho64: support is The official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org
[08:59] <RoC_MM> HorizonXP, Ubuntu has info on that on their website I'm sure...
[09:00] <HorizonXP> RoC_MM: My desktop runs beautifully on Ubuntu, I'm hoping it's even better on the new laptop, but i'm trying to figure out if I should stay with 32 bit or go 64
[09:00] <yigal> pagan0ne: then I wish you luck on the kiba build :)
[09:00] <HorizonXP> !ubotu 64bit
[09:00] <ubotu> AMD64 and EMT64 are fully supported architectures on Ubuntu. See http://tinyurl.com/jv6tc for more information.
[09:00] <RoC_MM> Lapinux, it does an apt-get update && apt-get upgrade check in the background
[09:00] <rickjames> wait sorry horizon, i don't have core 2, i have core duo XD
[09:00] <mattsqz> youll run into minor issues with 64bit
[09:00] <mattsqz> flash, for example
[09:00] <bayziders> For some reason I don't have my progress bar when I boot and shut down. How do I get it back?
[09:00] <HorizonXP> yeah rickjames, core2 was the first laptop chip to support it
[09:00] <HorizonXP> rickjames, thas why i went with it
[09:00] <pagan0ne> yigal: i _think_ i just finished... lol
[09:00] <Zenerek> Lapinux: look up and two your right on your desktop there is a liitle icon that if you hover the mouse over tell you if there are any updates
[09:01] <niuq> RoC_MM: it worked well, thx
[09:01] <DarthShrine> I have a Core Duo T2350 with an Intel 945GM IGP.  When I run Beryl there are blue outlines around windows that are on top of the mplayer window.  Alt-tab, etc will also turn the whole mplayer window blue.  In Metacity the video is fine.  What can I do to remove the blue areas?
[09:01] <Lapinux> RoC_MM: i accidently had "prerelease updates" checked and it hosed something, i got rid of the old kernel, removed the entry from grub and am using the old kernel, i unchecked the prerelease and want to update again but it thinks im all up to date....
[09:01] <HorizonXP> roc_mm: looking at the wiki, it says that apt-get doesn't support biarch, so it's tough to get 32 bit apps
[09:02] <yigal> pagan0ne: enjoy, but I think if you are like me you will soon get tired of the stuff flying around the screen :) but I hope you enjoy
[09:02] <rickjames> well basically i've just had to do a lot of fine tuning to this machine to make everything work right. but my desktop with beryl and emerald is sick.
[09:02] <khin> hi, is there any way i can get rid of this horrid brown color at startup
[09:02] <Naisenu> weltall: Are you getting the printer error?
[09:02] <Lapinux> Roc_MM: i mean i got rid of the newest *hosed kernel
[09:02] <weltall> i didn't try printing
[09:02] <FFForever> HELP!!!, sorry but i was getting help and i changed my only users group from the main group and now i cant run sudo.....
[09:02] <pagan0ne> yigal: well i like to play with the stuff, i may never use it again, but i like to expirment and learn, and if i like it, i may keep it...
[09:02] <Naisenu> after you hit the big OK button
[09:02] <khin> i've been changing my gnome stuff but can i change the ubuntu startup screen
[09:03] <magnetron> FFForever: start ubuntu in single-user mode and fix it
[09:03] <FFForever> how?
[09:03] <FFForever> and i use kubuntu :D
[09:03] <magnetron> FFForever: when you see the grub menu, it will be there
[09:03] <weltall> if you do print multiple it seems to work naisenu
[09:03] <Lapinux> Roc_MM: can you help me any further?
[09:03] <rickjames> okay so nobody can help me figure out how i went from running ubuntu, to traipsing through the bash shell, to issuing direct commands to my processor? and got a boot: prompt?
[09:03] <Naisenu> I think the program checks for a printer and then errors out if it can't find one. I just installed my HP PSC1210 here and it doesn't like that.
[09:03] <FFForever> i see recovery :)
[09:03] <FFForever> is that it?
[09:03] <magnetron> FFForever: that's it
[09:04] <yigal> pagan0ne: linux that is what its about, experimentation
[09:04] <weltall> works fine here naisenu
[09:04] <RoC_MM> Lapinux, I would restore from backups...or reinstall if the system.
[09:04] <weltall> with default printer selected
[09:04] <pagan0ne> yigal: yeah thats what they said about acid too
[09:04] <rickjames> mmmm. acid.
[09:04] <Naisenu> Do I have to reboot the machine for it to realize that there's a printer attached?
[09:05] <Lapinux> Roc_MM: no way i can tell it to apply updates again now that i dont have the hosed kernel and the prerelease updates checked
[09:05] <khin> is there any way to change this
[09:05] <RoC_MM> Not likely Naisenu.
[09:05] <Ausylo> anyone know how i can get better screen resolution that 1024x768 with ubuntu ?
[09:05] <rickjames> well whatever, someone type man -k man in terminal and check it out.
[09:05] <Ausylo> than*
[09:05] <FFForever> kk *brb* 5mins :D
[09:05] <marquinho64> anyone from Brazil?
[09:05] <pagan0ne> arg!
[09:05] <RoC_MM> Lapinux, you could run "sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get upgrade" from the terminal.
[09:05] <Naisenu> *bangs head* There is a printer showing as installed. Yet this stupid program is erroring out.
[09:07] <Naisenu> Bleh. it wasn't default. That fixed it.
[09:07] <tsai> hi folks,  I accidently installed apache2 twice, and now want to remove any instance of it.  Any body know how I can get rid of both installs altogether?  It appears that they have documentation in several location when i do a locate
[09:07] <pagan0ne> is there any way to compile a virtual brick to throw at this virtual junk they call kiba.... after hours of fighting, i got it to compile, now... it wont run!
[09:08] <RoC_MM> pagan0ne, yes you could compile a brick, but that wouldn't make kiba run...
[09:08] <khin> is there any way to change the ubuntu startup screen from this brown color
[09:08] <Naisenu> what is kiba?
[09:08] <rickjames> mmm. compiling bricks.
[09:08] <Lapinux> Roc_MM: same thing, do you know what file it looks at to see whats installed
[09:08] <Zenerek> pagan0ne that's just i candy, now losing your browser, that hurts
[09:08] <RoC_MM> khin, Yes...it's a graphic, not really a color...you may not want to bother unelss it's a big deal.
[09:09] <pagan0ne> RoC_MM: well i was hoping it WOULDNT run at that point actually, but a bit of googling got it to work
[09:09] <Lapinux> Roc_MM: as far as updates
[09:09] <RoC_MM> Lapinux, I'd reinstall...much simpler...can you do this?
[09:09] <FFForever> what is the root/sudo group?
[09:09] <Lapinux> Roc_MM: i have alot of work into it.....
[09:09] <khin> well, er, if you could point me toward doing this that would be great
[09:10] <rickjames> it tells your computer who has permissions to use sudo commands i'd think ffforever
[09:10] <Lapinux> Roc_MM: and i forget commands alot, and how i did things :)
[09:10] <RoC_MM> FFForever, the group is "admin"
[09:10] <FFForever> kk
[09:10] <weltall> good that it worked :)
[09:10] <niuq> my system is not mouting usb memories automatically, how could i make it manually?
[09:10] <shadow89> heloooo world
[09:10] <Lapinux> Roc_MM: i was thinking there had to be a way to trick it and get it to start over with appying updates
[09:10] <Zenerek> Lapinux: write notes down, i got so many i created a docs folder
[09:11] <khin> id like to get rid of this graphic... i do not want to see any brown from boot to gnome...
[09:11] <FFForever> how come i don't see me in the admin group on my current system in kcontrol?
[09:11] <rickjames> your in ffforever probably
[09:11] <rickjames> root and your own name is part of it
[09:11] <FFForever> found it :D
[09:12] <punsad> anyone know how to ensure that ndiswrapper is installed for each reboot?
[09:12] <RoC_MM> khin, mmmm...you could close your eyes...no?   Yes...I think "splash" is a boot parameter...you could remove that....then it would show the normal boot process with all the text info i bet.
[09:12] <Zenerek>  khin google for it or visit gnome art .com, or i think that's the place
[09:12] <RoC_MM> FFForever, didn't you remove yourself from that group?
[09:12] <Naisenu> btw thank you for your help, weltall
[09:12] <niuq> khin: www.gnome-look.org
[09:12] <weltall> np :)
[09:12] <RoC_MM> khin, that boot progress bar is called the "usplash" btw..
[09:12] <FFForever> nvm :D
[09:13] <Naisenu> ... is there anyway to make a shortcut to do the command line running of it?
[09:13] <RoC_MM> I think.
[09:13] <FFForever> i run 2 copys of kubuntu RoC_MM  :D
[09:13] <niuq> ubuntu is not mounting usb memories automatically
[09:13] <FFForever> one on this computer the other on my server :D
[09:13] <niuq> any help?
[09:13] <weltall> well
[09:13] <FFForever> (i messed up on my server...)
[09:13] <weltall> you can do a shell script
[09:13] <AnAnt> Hello, is there something similar to ActiveDirectory in linux ?
[09:13] <weltall> as calling it directly seems to not work well
[09:13] <weltall> #/bin/sh
[09:13] <RoC_MM> AnAnt, yes there are a few things.
[09:13] <weltall> cd /path/to/file
[09:13] <weltall> wine executable
[09:13] <AnAnt> RoC_MM: what ?
[09:13] <Zenerek> anyway i have to go, night all er morning or whatever it is where you all are bye
[09:13] <RoC_MM> AnAnt, I don't know...I just know there are... :-D
[09:17] <RoC_MM> It can't possibly have gone completely silent for this long
[09:17] <xenex> anyone know why firestarter is using 100% cpu?
[09:17] <AnAnt> it did
[09:17] <punsad> which file do I edit to install modules at boot?  is it /etc/modules?
[09:18] <FFForever> how does recovery mod get me root access?, when i didn't even know the root password?
[09:18] <RoC_MM> xenex, sounds like not enough information.
[09:18] <RoC_MM> did you google it xenex ?
[09:18] <FFForever> also i changed the root password can i still use recovery mode?
[09:18] <xenex> yes
[09:18] <pagan0ne> Zambezi: the horrible thing is im a kubuntu user, the only reason i came here for help, is kiba is gtk based, and i figured the gtk gods could help more than the Qt Gods, however it seemes i was the only help in this case
[09:18] <xenex> nothing
[09:18] <RoC_MM> FFForever, recovery mode doesn't require a password I think...
[09:18] <xenex> i'm getting a bunch of attempt to connect to my torrents port but they are all being blocked so its working.
[09:18] <LeMonX2> o.o
[09:19] <FFForever> it does not but how does the recovery mode get root access on my box?
[09:19] <xenex> just don't understand why it is using 100% cpu
[09:19] <oclarke> Hi there, I'm having trouble getting my tv tuner to work. It used to (pre edgy), but now I get sound and no picture, so it is getting a signal
[09:19] <RoC_MM> FFForever, it just boots to a single user runlevel...try it and see
[09:19] <LeMonX2> what is room about
[09:20] <RoC_MM> xenex, There's a good reason.  It wouldn't be at 100% unless it was doing something...
[09:20] <oclarke> I'm using feisty and the card is a Leadtek TV2000XP
[09:20] <xenex> okay then, might as well not use firestarter
[09:20] <magnetron> !support | LeMonX2
[09:20] <xenex> if its killing my cpu
[09:20] <ubotu> LeMonX2: support is The official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org
[09:20] <RoC_MM> xenex, you could also try a different firewall configurator...all those programs are just configuring LInux's built-in firewall.
[09:21] <LeMonX2> what is ubuntu ?
[09:21] <oclarke> anyone have any thoughts??
[09:21] <xenex> wouldn't it be the same effect for others...?
[09:21] <xenex> denying hosts and such
[09:21] <LeMonX2> bb
[09:21] <kraut> moin
[09:21] <RoC_MM> xenex, it might be analysing some logs or something...if it stays that way then something is wrong I would assume.
[09:22] <RandomizeR> "No package 'openssl' found" when running configure on feisty prior to making Downloader for X.. help anyone!?
[09:22] <RoC_MM> LemonX2, goto ubuntu.com
[09:22] <Ausylo> how do i find out my ESSID?
[09:22] <RandomizeR> openssl is installed, and i even reinstalled it yet i still get it :-s
[09:22] <curiogeo> I have reinstalled a samba install on 6.06 and I was able to save the home partition.  When I try to add the users again I am getting an error.
[09:22] <rickjames> install package openssl randomizer, use synaptic package manager...
[09:22] <bluebanana> ubuntu has add/remove and synaptic. so what's the use of using automatix2?
[09:23] <RandomizeR> rickjames: it's installed
[09:24] <RandomizeR> rickjames: and even reinstalling it didn't help
[09:24] <Ausylo> anyone know how i find out my ESSID on my router during install of Ubuntu?
[09:24] <RandomizeR> and when i do pkg-config --list-all it's not there!
[09:24] <rickjames> well trace your compiler with a terminal command.  put man on both sides of your compile command and see what is giving you problems.  i'd suggest. seeing as i'm a nub and that helped me get my computer in working order.
[09:24] <RandomizeR> yet it is there in /usr/bin/openssl
[09:25] <vip3rousmango> hello?
[09:25] <rickjames> it also helped me recompile my system when my x-server wouldnt start
[09:26] <rickjames> i basically traced down the bug in my system with it, so it shouldnt be hard to trace down a bug with a compile problem.
[09:26] <void^> RandomizeR: you probably want libssl-dev
[09:26] <tonsofpcs> anyone know any music playback software with a http 'request' interface and weighted rotation automation (like SAM3) for linux?  [doesn't need to stream, just play audio, but streaming is fine too] 
[09:27] <Assassin`> i can use adobe photoshop in ubuntu right...
[09:27] <RandomizeR> void^: yes, thanks!
[09:27] <Assassin`> just wanted to know before i wasted my time
[09:27] <rickjames> with the right stuff installed possibly assassin
[09:27] <rickjames> i don't know myself...
[09:27] <Assassin`> sweet
[09:27] <Assassin`> any idea what i need
[09:27] <Assassin`> if not i'll just check the forum tomarrow
[09:27] <rickjames> yes you can
[09:27] <rickjames> 100% sure
[09:28] <Assassin`> o yea
[09:28] <rickjames> ubuntu helps you configure it
[09:28] <Assassin`> if it needs wine im straight
[09:28] <FFForever> can i make a .deb for pidgin?
[09:28] <rickjames> well wine and probably some other backend libraries
[09:28] <rickjames> like mono...
[09:28] <Assassin`> but i think there were some other things i need yea
[09:28] <rickjames> and some other stuff
[09:28] <Assassin`> other libraries
[09:28] <Assassin`> i'll look it up
[09:28] <rickjames> yup.
[09:29] <Assassin`> program too expensive (cough cough) to go to waste
[09:29] <Assassin`> may have been free for me thou
[09:29] <Assassin`> u never know
[09:29] <tonsofpcs> FFForever: there is one
[09:29] <Assassin`> :P
[09:29] <tonsofpcs> FFForever: 1 sec
[09:29] <tonsofpcs> FFForever: http://www.getdeb.net/search.php?keywords=pidgin
[09:31] <FFForever> i hate it :D
[09:31] <FFForever> XD, i just wanted to share it (lol) ile just give my friends that link :D
[09:31] <khin> hi, i notice that in between the gnome logon screen and my desktop loading, there is this brown screen in between. is there some way to stop this from appearing
[09:32] <rickjames> probably not khin
[09:32] <rickjames> thats gnome loading certain things before others
[09:32] <khin> ugh
[09:32] <rickjames> and then drawing on top of it
[09:33] <rickjames> how long does it last?
[09:33] <khin> 1 sec max
[09:33] <godgryphon> hi, i was wondering, does ubuntu feisty fawn have more hardware compatibility than the last release? particularly in ati radeon graphics cards
[09:33] <rickjames> i'd say its probably just your computer taking a while to load your x server and window manager.
[09:33] <hylje> godgryphon: somewhat
[09:33] <rickjames> well god, it sure does with my nvidia card
[09:34] <godgryphon> because this graphics card can run sabayon but not ubuntu 6 >.>
[09:34] <mans_> hello
[09:34] <godgryphon> hello
[09:34] <Flannel> godgryphon: Which card is it?  older or newer?
[09:34] <rickjames> godgryphon, install it, and then get automatix, then go to drivers.  you'll beable to automatically install the best stuff for your system.
[09:34] <khin> maybe i should update to feisty.
[09:34] <Flannel> !automatix | rickjames, godgryphon
[09:34] <godgryphon> ati radeon 9250
[09:34] <ubotu> rickjames, godgryphon: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[09:34] <mans_> anyone   whos very good  ubuntu
[09:35] <TigerMau> hello!!
[09:35] <h3xis> is there a command to configure the keyboard? i'm not running X nor do i have an X server installed for specific reasons
[09:35] <rickjames> hehe. yeah well, don't rely on automatix, just use it to install some stuff with your fresh distro....
[09:35] <mans_> i  cant  run ym
[09:35] <maeth> i installed feisty fawn without the swap partition, i dont know what it does exactly, should i create it?, and if so, how can i?
[09:35] <Flannel> rickjames: No.  Don't use it period.  It breaks things.  Please don't recommend it.
[09:35] <rickjames> mmkay sorry.
[09:35] <vip3rousmango> anyone know if ubuntu would read my PSP if i put my psp into connect mode?
[09:35] <TigerMau> skystar2 pci it's compatible with ubuntu?
[09:36] <rickjames> its the only way i could get quite a few things to work on my pc. then i uninstalled it.
[09:36] <ziroday> will xfce work on these specs?
[09:36] <godgryphon> maeth : it makes linux faster, its reccomended but not mandatory
[09:36] <ziroday> * Speed   : 466 MHz with Celeron processor
[09:36] <ziroday> * Memory  :
[09:36] <ziroday>   - 3 computers : 64 MB
[09:36] <ziroday>   - 2 computers : 128 MB
[09:36] <ziroday> * Hard disk
[09:36] <ziroday>   - 3 computers : 10 gigabytes
[09:36] <ziroday>   - 2 computers : 4.3 gigabytes
[09:36] <ziroday> * USB version 1
[09:36] <ziroday> * No Floppy disk and CD room
[09:36] <Flannel> godgryphon: ATIs closed source driver doesn't support anything below the 9500.  However, the open source ati drivers will work.
[09:36] <ziroday> * No Sound card
[09:36] <Flannel> ziroday: please don't paste here
[09:36] <rickjames> because i have to use proprietary nvidia drivers....
[09:36] <godgryphon> flannel : thanks man, good advice
[09:36] <ziroday> Flannel: :)
[09:36] <vip3rousmango> anyone know?
[09:37] <maeth> godgryphon, if i create with gparted live cd a blank partition, how can i set it to be "the swap partition"?
[09:37] <godgryphon> vip3rousmango : try it if you have it installed, heck, its a livecd, you could just try it, but i honestly dont know, mostlikely though unless it needs a special windows driver
[09:37] <Josesordo> how to mount a ISO images in feisty ?
[09:38] <Flannel> ziroday: Yes.  It'll work on those computers.  You'll need the alternate CD to install on the 64MB computers though.
[09:38] <Flannel> !iso | Josesordo
[09:38] <ubotu> Josesordo: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[09:38] <godgryphon> maeth : well, make it about 2 gigs, better more than less, and make it a primary partition and format it to swap, its in the menu
[09:38] <godgryphon> brb
[09:38] <Josesordo> :O thanks
[09:39] <gb__> hi guys
[09:39] <maeth> godgryphon, thanks , will do...
[09:39] <gb__> anyone here got gaim-pt?
[09:39] <TigerMau> do you know if skystar2 hardware it's compatible with ubuntu?
[09:39] <godgryphon> back
[09:39] <gb__> anyone?
[09:40] <haf> TigerMau, the Skystar2 is a DVB-S card, right?
[09:40] <gb__> i tried to google but with no luck
[09:40] <gb__> so if anyone has it?
[09:40] <TigerMau> yes haf!!
[09:41] <gb__> ok guess not
[09:41] <gb__> thanks anyways guys
[09:41] <godgryphon> is feisty fawn better than the last release substantially?
[09:41] <haf> TigerMau, it seems to: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/TechniSat_SkyStar_2_TV_PCI_/_Sky2PC
[09:42] <TigerMau> im novice... and i want to switch from windows to ubuntu but i dont know if my hardware it's compatible..
[09:42] <godgryphon> live cd will tell ya tigermau
[09:42] <haf> live cd will only tell you if it's running out of the box
[09:42] <godgryphon> true
[09:42] <TigerMau> i like ubuntu
[09:43] <godgryphon> ubuntu is alright
[09:43] <TigerMau> GREAT haf!!!
[09:43] <rickjames> ubuntu is awesome, it works almost flawlessly with win32 apps, kde, and gnome stuff.
[09:43] <DemonSamurai> anyone can help me about alien pls?
[09:43] <godgryphon> win 32 apps? uh, wine runs on many linux distros
[09:43] <rickjames> i know that
[09:43] <haf> gnome also ^^
[09:44] <rickjames> but it still runs win32 apps pretty flawlessly through wine.
[09:44] <rickjames> and the beryl windows manager is superb
[09:44] <rickjames> my desktop is totally tripped out.
[09:44] <godgryphon> tue
[09:44] <godgryphon> true*
[09:44] <Flannel> godgryphon: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/704tour
[09:44] <godgryphon> my two favorite distros are sabayon and ubuntu
[09:44] <godgryphon> thanks
[09:46] <DemonSamurai> how do i convert flash-plugin-9.0.31.0.rpm into flash-plugin-9.0.31.0.deb?
[09:46] <CheshireViking> !alien | DemonSamurai
[09:46] <ubotu> DemonSamurai: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[09:46] <Flannel> DemonSamurai: Flash is in the repositories, you don't need to convert.
[09:47] <TigerMau> i have ultimate question... there are a ubuntu driver for WinTV-HVR-1100? it's another dvb card analog+dvb-t!
[09:47] <DemonSamurai> Flannel yes i agree but it fails when i try to do it through the adept-updater
[09:48] <Flannel> DemonSamurai: What fails?  What version of ubuntu are you using?
[09:48] <Flannel> er, version of Kubuntu
[09:48] <ch4r13s> lemme gues yall are all talkin bout nvidia drivers
[09:48] <DemonSamurai> kubuntu 7.04 amd64
[09:48] <rickjames> use synaptic....
[09:48] <haf> TigerMau, please check on that site that I've showed you, you should also find information about other cards there
[09:48] <DemonSamurai> nope i actually still trying to find ATI drivers
[09:48] <Flannel> DemonSamurai: ah.  There's no flash for AMD64, because Adobe doesn't believe in 64bit
[09:48] <rickjames> lol are u seirous?
[09:49] <ch4r13s> you can use 32bit
[09:49] <ch4r13s> if you use a wrapper
[09:49] <ch4r13s> i got 64bit with flash workin
[09:49] <TigerMau> ok haf
[09:49] <DemonSamurai> anyone any idea about ATI drivers?
[09:49] <rickjames> demon, give me a sec i'll check repositories
[09:49] <nullkuhl> guys what is xterm and wat is rxvt ?
[09:49] <ch4r13s> HELP ME!: i keep getting FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia
[09:49] <TigerMau> it's driver only for Windows 98SE, ME, 2000, XP
[09:49] <ch4r13s> after i installed the new nvidia drivers
[09:50] <ch4r13s> tried every tutorial everywhere
[09:50] <Flannel> ch4r13s: what was wrong with the old drivers?
[09:50] <ch4r13s> my xorg.conf says nvidia for driver.... my restricted file has nv in it
[09:50] <Flannel> ch4r13s: and, how did you install the new ones?
[09:50] <ch4r13s> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual
[09:50] <ch4r13s> following that
[09:50] <ch4r13s> and every other tutorial on the forums
[09:50] <rickjames> ch4rles
[09:51] <rickjames> do you have a geforce go?
[09:51] <ch4r13s> i got Ubuntu 64bit 7.04 with Geforce 7900 GT
[09:51] <rickjames> and you have to use the proprietaries?
[09:51] <rickjames> the restricted drivers?
[09:51] <ch4r13s> uname -r = 2.6.20-16-generic
[09:51] <Flannel> ch4r13s: Did you read the first line of that page?
[09:51] <ch4r13s> Flannel yes
[09:51] <bullgard4> What is the filename of the routing table in Ubuntu 7.04?
[09:52] <ch4r13s> ive seriously tried all the other ways before i did this
[09:52] <ch4r13s> routing table?
[09:52] <rickjames> did you uninstall the old ones first? because ubuntu automaticcaly set up me using the proprietary nvidia ones
[09:52] <rickjames> and when i tried to install the oss ones
[09:52] <nullkuhl> rxvt-unicode
[09:52] <rickjames> my computer died hard
[09:52] <Flannel> ch4r13s: And nvidia-glx-new didn't work?  They should have.  Theyre supported
[09:53] <ch4r13s> uhm
[09:53] <ch4r13s> lemme try
[09:53] <Flannel> ch4r13s: well, now that you've done it manually, there's no saying if it will or wont.  You're no longer strictly under package management
[09:53] <rickjames> i had to install a bunch of extra nvidia libraries to get the drivers to work with me.
[09:54] <ch4r13s> just uninstalled newest nvidia through console
[09:54] <ch4r13s> sudo sh NVIDIA* --uninstall
[09:54] <ch4r13s> one second
[09:54] <ch4r13s> apt-gettin
[09:54] <rickjames> but i decided to just go with the proprietary ones, makes for much cooler desktop effects :)
[09:54] <BadRobot> hi there
[09:55] <ch4r13s> is nvidia-glx-new equal to putting nv in the xorg.conf
[09:55] <ch4r13s> after i install them
[09:55] <BadRobot> any some  help,how do i convert a zip file to tar.gz?
[09:55] <BadRobot> is there any good zipper program?

[09:55] <The_Entropy> hi guys
[09:57] <aberry5555> hi everyone... Im having a few problems with Ndiswrapper in feisty, I think I need to uninstall the module and upgrade to a newer version but I don't know how, anyone have any ideas?
[09:57] <The_Entropy> I am trying to install gtk+2.10, the following problem is occuring during the execution of the configure script: http://pastebin.ca/558119
[09:58] <DemonSamurai> anyone any idea where to find ASUS ATI RADEON EAX1600 series debian drivers?
[09:58] <The_Entropy> now i have indeed installed glib 2.12 from source, but in the package manager glib 2.10.3 is the newest version
[09:58] <weltall> dove posso trovare il file con i repo di default?
[09:58] <aberry5555> the asus drivers should be exactly the same as the ati drivers, demonsamuria
[09:58] <DemonSamurai> i don't know where to find them
[09:59] <The_Entropy> trying to remove that old version would result in a lot of other dependant packages to be removed and I don't want that to happen
[09:59] <aberry5555> www.ati.com
[09:59] <bezak> ne1 know how to turn off antialiasing in gnome-terminal
[09:59] <DemonSamurai> no linux drivers in official sites
[09:59] <aberry5555> actually, ignore that
[09:59] <aberry5555> do you want the standard gnu drivers or the proprietary 3D enabled ones?
[09:59] <DemonSamurai> the 3d ones
[09:59] <rickjames> the proprietary 3d enabled ones if he wants cool stuff
[10:00] <aberry5555> OK, well first things first open up synaptic, make sure the "universe" and "multiverse"  repos are enabled and search for "fglrx"
[10:00] <aberry5555> that package sometimes doesnt work though, what version of Ubuntu are you using?
[10:00] <ch4r13s> hey im getting a problem when i startx.... FATEL: could not open /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia.ko': No such file or directory
[10:01] <ch4r13s> any advise
[10:01] <bezak> ch4r13s: are you trying to install nvidia drivers?
[10:01] <ch4r13s> i just installed nvidia-glx-new
[10:01] <ch4r13s> yes
[10:01] <bezak> ch4r13s: something isn't working
[10:01] <ch4r13s> nvidia is in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:01] <ch4r13s> next to device
[10:01] <bezak> ch4r13s: change the nvidia line in your xorg.conf back to nv
[10:02] <ch4r13s> ok one sec
[10:02] <DemonSamurai> in ati site i get this http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/linux64/linux64-radeon.html
[10:02] <aberry5555> Does anyone know how to uninstall modules that are included in the standard kernel WITHOUT rebuilding your own kernel?
[10:02] <DemonSamurai> it is .run file
[10:02] <DemonSamurai> how do i install it?
[10:03] <ch4r13s> bezak: thanks worked
[10:03] <rickjames> does that even make sense? could one remove things from a kernel without rebuilding it?
[10:03] <aberry5555> hi demon, go to your private message
[10:03] <aberry5555> I dont know :S thats why Im asking
[10:03] <rickjames> i'd guess no O.o
[10:03] <bezak> ch4r13s: no worries, at least you have graphics back
[10:03] <aberry5555> I need to remove the included ndiswrapper module and upgrade to the newer one
[10:03] <ch4r13s> indeed
[10:03] <bezak> ch4r13s: not sure why it didnt work though
[10:03] <ch4r13s> cus i had it set to nvidia not nv
[10:04] <wrzask> Hello.
[10:04] <bezak> ch4r13s: yeah but if you installed the drivers nvidia should work
[10:04] <bezak> wrzask: hey
[10:04] <wrzask> Is there any easy way to upgrade from 32-bit to 64-bit version?
[10:04] <bezak> wrzask: why?
[10:05] <wrzask> bezak, Well, I want my to go 64-bit, yet I'd like to skip the whole reinstall, if possible. ;)
[10:05] <k1gwb> wrzask: nope, can't upgrade between 32/64
[10:05] <bezak> wrzask: hmm... i'm not sure, how come you want to go 64 do you have loads of ram?

[10:10] <ch4r13s> nvidia-glx-new
[10:11] <bezak> ch4r13s: yeah but cos you have nv selected, that means you're running the oss ones atm
[10:11] <ch4r13s> ow ok
[10:11] <bezak> ch4r13s: i just told you to do that, so that you could start x back up

[10:11] <ch4r13s> ah ok...
[10:12] <ch4r13s> so is this process to get the nvidia-glx-new working long?
[10:12] <nullkuhl> guys wat is xterm and rxvt
[10:12] <bezak> ch4r13s: how come you don't just use that proprietary driver wizard thing in feisty>?
[10:12] <bezak> ch4r13s: restricted drivers whatever
[10:12] <logmein> if my desktop theme isn't compatible with certain applications (particularly firefox) how do I disable it from affecting that application?
[10:13] <bezak> logmein: what do you mean
[10:13] <ch4r13s> uhm
[10:13] <logmein> bezak: I got xfce-dark theme and when I load google in firefox the buttons and search bar are all dark too
[10:13] <bezak> nullkuhl: xterm is a terminal emulator, like gnome-terminal
[10:13] <ch4r13s> bezak: good eye thanks enabling through Restrictd Drivers

[10:13] <logmein> bezak: it has other problems with menus and buttons that conflict with website themes
[10:13] <xtreon> anyone remember the name of the aplication witch can be used to change the looks of the gnome desktop?
[10:14] <aberry5555> logmein: I've had that before, the only way I found out how to fix it was to use the "light" theme, which is the same but lighter text
[10:14] <bezak> ch4r13s: haha np
[10:14] <logmein> aberry5555: but I want the other theme I just want to force firefox to not use it
[10:15] <submissiveone> uhm
[10:15] <submissiveone> woot?
[10:15] <aa^way> what is java bytecode editors out here?
[10:15] <logmein> aberry5555: it pisses me off when websites use part of my desktop theme considering they don't know what my theme is
[10:15] <submissiveone> ya ?
[10:15] <aberry5555> it is the same theme, just a slightly different text. Try it and see, I think, otherwise if it's not to your taste I dunno a way around it,s orry :S
[10:16] <ch4r13s> bezak: Failed to start x server
[10:16] <bezak> logmein: do you mean like the widgets on websites like the buttons and scroll bars and that stuff?
[10:16] <logmein> aberry5555: hang on I'll show you what I mean
[10:16] <logmein> bezak: yes those!
[10:16] <bezak> logmein: i remember seeing recently howw to use different ones can't remember where though haha

[10:17] <ch4r13s> how
[10:17] <bezak> logmein: i know that firefox on ubuntu comes with some firefox-gnome integration
[10:17] <bezak> logmein: mb get rid of that
[10:18] <bezak> logmein: then it will use some standard theme
[10:18] <logmein> ch4r13s: apt-get remove linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)-generic

[10:18] <logmein> bezak: oh ok
[10:18] <bezak> logmein: not sure though :)
[10:18] <logmein> bezak: I thought it might be some sort of gtk plugin theme stuff
[10:18] <sinapsi77> can i pastebin my xorg and glxinfo for an help?
[10:19] <sinapsi77> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25073/
[10:19] <sinapsi77> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25072/
[10:19] <bezak> logmein: yeah i dunno i use epiphany, and mine just uses some standard ugly buttons
[10:19] <logmein> bezak: but standard and ugly are good seeing as they don't usually conflict with websites
[10:19] <aberry5555> does anyone know how to upgrade ndiswrapper in feisty?
[10:19] <bezak> logmein: this is true
[10:20] <xtreon> anyone know where the cokey config file is located?
[10:20] <bezak> xtreon: conkey?
[10:20] <logmein> aberry5555: yeah you have to completely remove it and blacklist any driver your system might be trying to use then go to nidiswrapper site and compile it, make sure you have kernel headers and compiler
[10:20] <xtreon> bezak,  conky
[10:20] <Plantain> Hey, I've installed from the 7.04 i386 standard install disc, but my install doesn't seem to have a bootloader, is one installed by default?
[10:20] <sinapsi77> someone can help me...for the 3d with ati igp340m ??
[10:20] <logmein> aberry5555: also at site they have a list of what windows driver you have to get .inf and .sys files from
[10:21] <bezak> xtreon: ummm mb in .conky ? type "sudo updatedb" then when thats finished type "locate conky"
[10:21] <Jimmey> Plantain, yeah. What is the problem?
[10:21] <Plantain> Jimmey: My computer doesn't seem to find the bootloader then
[10:21] <Plantain> Just gives "Error Loading Operating System"

[10:21] <xtreon> bezak, cheers
[10:21] <Jimmey> Plantain, does GRUB appear at all?
[10:21] <ch4r13s> ok so nvidia-glx-new doesnt work in 16 but only in 15 of the kernel
[10:21] <Plantain> Jimmey: No
[10:21] <Plantain> oh wait
[10:21] <ch4r13s> good to know
[10:21] <Plantain> spoke to soon
[10:22] <Jimmey> Plantain, what's your hard drive setup like?
[10:22] <slackmagic> xtreon:  ~/.conkyrc   but then again you can use   conky -c /path/to/anyconfigurationfile
[10:22] <Andiamo> Good Morning people
[10:22] <logmein> bezak: ok firefox-gnome-support or mozilla-firefox-gnome-support both are not installed
[10:22] <Plantain> Jimmey: Looks to have fixed itself, or maybe it was to do with having the LiveCD still in the drive
[10:22] <Plantain> Thanks!
[10:22] <bezak> logmein: they aren't installed?
[10:22] <DJ-_-> i installed xubuntu on a p3 50mhz 128mb ram...but the shutdown process fails....the xubuntu logo comes and then the when the text black screen comes it is stuck there....the cursor is blinking but no text pops up...tried waiting for 20mins....and this has happened 3 times
[10:22] <Jimmey> Plantain, haha...You're welcome? :-P
[10:22] <Andiamo> I am Moustafa from Egypt cairo Pyramids st.
[10:22] <xtreon> slackmagic, canf find ~/.conkeyrc but I will make a new one,. theers
[10:22] <aberry5555> logmein: I would remove it but its part of the kernel in feisty :S
[10:22] <xtreon> cheers*
[10:23] <Andiamo> Working on ubuntu 7.4
[10:23] <bezak> DJ-_-: can you type anything at the prompt?
[10:23] <_olaf> i'm having problems playing any videos in ubuntu
[10:23] <DJ-_-> bezak no
[10:23] <_olaf> they only show like 1 frame and then go black
[10:23] <DJ-_-> 500* mhz
[10:23] <ch4r13s> logmein: i got nvidia-glx-new installed on restricted version 15 but now when i get into x server my bars are stretched across both of my monitors and new windows open up in between both of my monitors
[10:23] <bezak> DJ-_-: file a bug
[10:23] <_olaf> and then come back for a second and disappear again
[10:23] <logmein> aberry5555: ndiswrapper is not part of the kernel you have to install it through synaptic to get the old version that doesn't work
[10:23] <ch4r13s> logmein: im using twinview
[10:23] <_olaf> anybody have an idea what's going on?
[10:23] <DJ-_-> bezak: but i think there must be some other error cuz my other pc is working fine
[10:23] <aberry5555> logmein: it is part of the kernel in feisty, it wasnt in edgy but it is now
[10:24] <sinapsi77> no, that tutorial if for fglrx... but it don't work
[10:24] <askand> I use the mountingapplet in the gnomepanel...but recently it started showing  a icon all the time and if I click it I get an "mount cdrom 1" option..how to get rid of the icon?
[10:24] <sinapsi77> have you seen my pastebin?
[10:24] <logmein> ch4r13s: if you don't get a xorg crash then its running you just have to configure /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:24] <slackmagic> xtreon: it would be ~/.conkyrc     ..also take a look at  /usr/share/doc/conky/examples/conkyrc.sample.gz  ..i believe that's where it installs a generic configuration file ..so use zcat to pass it onto ~/.conkyrc for example

[10:24] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:24] <DJ-_-> bezak: what is the check disk command in ubuntu....cuz i will try that 1st
[10:24] <ch4r13s> logmein: ok
[10:24] <aberry5555> logmein: It is not in synaptic and it's running from /dev/2.16.blahblah/ndiswrapper
[10:24] <bezak> DJ-_-: not sure man, do you mean fsck?
[10:25] <bezak> fsck (8)             - check and repair a Linux file system
[10:25] <DJ-_-> bezak: does that like check the disk for errors? like the windows "chkdsk"
[10:25] <logmein> aberry5555: ndiswrapper is not part of feisty unless you installed it, your system is trying to use the other method most likely a firmware hack on the drivers to get them working without ndiswrapper
[10:25] <bezak> DJ-_-: sorry man i'm not a former windows user i'm not sure :)
[10:25] <aberry5555> I promise im not that much of a noob :p it is definately installed as I issued ndiswrapper -i on the driver, and it worked
[10:26] <logmein> aberry5555: look through dmesg for any wireless errors and add the driver name to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[10:26] <DJ-_-> bezak: ok...i will give fsck a try
[10:26] <DJ-_-> thx
[10:26] <aberry5555> I had the SAME problem I have now in edgy, I had to upgrade to fix it but now its part of the kernel I dont know how to uninstall it
[10:26] <bezak> DJ-_-: np
[10:26] <logmein> aberry5555: open synaptic and search for ndiswrapper, see any checks?
[10:26] <aberry5555> nope
[10:26] <aberry5555> nothing installed, but it was already running in the first place
[10:26] <logmein> aberry5555: then its NOT there, its a different driver its trying to use
[10:27] <aberry5555> it isnt, as I installed the gtk FE without ndiswrapper and it worked, also wifi works for about two seconds before the whole thing freezes
[10:27] <aberry5555> I promise you ndiswrapper is on there
[10:27] <selinuxium_> DJ-_-: in a terminal type   man fsck   it will tell you all about it. Most commands have a 'man' page. It is always a good idea to check the man page before issueing a command you do not know. :)
[10:27] <bezak> logmein: mb he compiled it
[10:28] <SteveWrightNZ> how do I strip the mp3 layer off an avi video ?
[10:28] <Jimmey> SteveWrightNZ, ask it to dinner first..
[10:28] <logmein> bezak good now he just needs to figure out how to gather .inf and .sys then remove unworking .inf and modprobe ndiswrapper
[10:28] <bezak> Jimmey: lol thinking same thing
[10:28] <DJ-_-> selinuxium: thats what i am trying right now...thx bro
[10:28] <serenecloud> hi, i've got a quick question, is it possible to set the window list window width to a fixed size?
[10:28] <bezak> logmein: man ndiswrapper is a PITA
[10:28] <DJ-_-> brb
[10:28] <SteveWrightNZ> Jimmey: thats often a lot of money work for nothing  ;-)
[10:29] <Jimmey> XoD
[10:29] <SteveWrightNZ> but seriously
[10:29] <logmein> bezak: I just do ndiswrapper -help
[10:29] <SteveWrightNZ> I need to pull the music track out of this video
[10:29] <logmein> bezak: trick is never read the man pages they are worse than make output
[10:30] <bezak> logmein: yeah bsd man pages are pretty good though
[10:30] <aberry5555> logmein: im sure ndiswrapper is included in the feisty kernel
[10:30] <slackmagic> SteveWrightNZ: you could use mplayer or mencoder for stuff like that ..hm..example
[10:30] <logmein> aberry5555: and I'm sure I got ndiswrapper compiled shoved .inf and .sys into it and wham it worked instantly on 5 different computers
[10:30] <slackmagic> SteveWrightNZ: mplayer -quiet -vo null -vc null -af volume=0,resample=44100:0:1 -ao pcm:waveheader whatevervideo.avi
[10:31] <SteveWrightNZ> sweet
[10:31] <logmein> aberry5555: what is your card output from lspci anyway?
[10:31] <SteveWrightNZ> slackmagic: +++
[10:31] <nullkuhl> bezak: what is its use then ? (xterm)
[10:31] <bullgard4> What is the filename of the routing table in Ubuntu 7.04?
[10:31] <logmein> bullgard4: iptables
[10:31] <aberry5555> im not by my pc so I dunno
[10:31] <tonsofpcs> I just installed a new monitor that supports better resolution than my previous.  Is there a GUI tool to update the X config or should I go and manually reconfigure it?
[10:31] <Frogzoo> bullgard4: there isn't one
[10:31] <bezak> nullkuhl: just for a terminal, its fast, i'm not sure what the advanced features are as im not exactly a terminal freak
[10:31] <aberry5555> when I look in hardware manager it says the driver is ndiswrapper
[10:31] <slackmagic> SteveWrightNZ: and then use lame to make a mp3 if you really want it in mp3...i prefer oggs
[10:32] <bullgard4> Frogzoo: But?
[10:32] <aberry5555> and I know for a fact I didnt install it myself
[10:32] <DJ-_-> Selinuxium: how do i unmount the hard and then do a fsck
[10:32] <serenecloud> tonsofpcs: there's dpkg-reconfigure
[10:32] <serenecloud> but I prefer manually editing
[10:32] <Frogzoo> bullgard4: /etc/network/interfaces ?
[10:32] <tonsofpcs> is there a way to change it without restarting X?
[10:32] <serenecloud> anyone is it possible to set the window list window width to a fixed size?
[10:32] <bullgard4> Frogzoo: /proc/net/route?
[10:32] <serenecloud> whoops, the underline shouldn't have been there
[10:32] <logmein> aberry555: then just override whatever the kernel is doing with the blacklist
[10:32] <logmein> aberry5555: that's what I've been trying to tell you :(
[10:33] <nullkuhl> how to have a colored syntax in terminal ? i saw it in screenshot but never knew how is it done.. can any one tell me ?
[10:33] <SteveWrightNZ> slackmagic: I thought it was already mp3
[10:33] <aberry5555> so how do I blacklist ndiswrapper without blacklisting the new one?
[10:33] <DJ-_-> well when i try to do a fsck....it says /dev/hda1 is mounted and can cause sever filestsystem damage...how do i do it then?
[10:33] <serenecloud> nullkuhl: you can use the file called .bashrc to set colors
[10:33] <DJ-_-> severe*
[10:33] <nullkuhl> where is it exactly ?
[10:33] <serenecloud> in /home/<username>/.bashrc
[10:33] <Gharbeia> Hi, Ihave no trouble connecting to open and WPAwirelss, but not with WEP. KNetworkManager would never get beyond "configuring". Any clues?
[10:34] <whiskey1973> I'm trying to patch my wireless (broadcom) drivers...The doc says to drop the patch in the kernel root and run n the terminal...I go to what I think is my kernel root but im restricted
[10:34] <SteveWrightNZ> slackmagic: that maplyer will only write wav ?  not mp3 ?
[10:34] <slackmagic> SteveWrightNZ: you can easily write a script that first strips off the audio to WAV and then encode it into whatever format you want...you never know if you want to edit the audio..that's why i like to first use wav
[10:34] <bezak> Gharbeia: that sounds like a #kubuntu question :)
[10:34] <logmein> whiskey1973: sudo su
[10:34] <SteveWrightNZ> ok
[10:34] <DJ-_-> Frogzoo:
[10:34] <Gharbeia> bezak: Not if you show me how to do it in bash :)
[10:35] <DJ-_-> Frogzoo: en i try to do a fsck....it says /dev/hda1 is mounted and can cause sever filestsystem damage...how do i do it then?*
[10:35] <slackmagic> SteveWrightNZ: also join #mplayer for more info
[10:35] <SteveWrightNZ> slackmagic:  thank you
[10:35] <logmein> DJ-_-: from live cd or during boot before the hard drive is mounted
[10:35] <Kaur> Hi!
[10:35] <bezak> Gharbeia: haha
[10:35] <DJ-_-> logmein: and how do i do that?
[10:35] <weltall> can someone help me with a strange nfs problem?
[10:35] <DJ-_-> logmein: before boot?
[10:35] <bezak> Gharbeia: i'm not sure man, but seriously, they might be able to help you more in #kubuntu
[10:36] <aberry5555> logmein: how do I blacklist ndiswrapper in the kernel without blacklisting the one I compile from source?
[10:36] <logmein> DJ-_-:  http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/feisty/release/xubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso try live cd
[10:36] <DJ-_-> logmein: it wont work on that machine its low on resources
[10:37] <weltall> try a gentoo live cd
[10:37] <logmein> aberry5555: I'm just going to take a wild guess here sudo echo "blacklist bcm43xx" | /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[10:37] <Gharbeia> bezak: Maybe. Thanks mate.
[10:37] <Kaur> I'm having a strange but probably simple problem with my laptop.... In gnome power manager I have defined that when a user pushes the power button it should ask the user what to do
[10:37] <Kaur> the problem is...
[10:37] <Kaur> nothing happens
[10:37] <bezak> Kaur: that sounds like a bug
[10:37] <aberry5555> logmein: bcm42xx isnt the module I want to blacklist... its ndiswrapper
[10:37] <DJ-_-> logmein: it wont work on that machine its low on resources
[10:38] <logmein> aberry5555: no its not
[10:38] <Kaur> I think it is an easy thing to solve...
[10:38] <logmein> aberry5555: ndiswrapper is not the driver
[10:38] <DJ-_-> logmein: can you plz tell me the boot way
[10:38] <Kaur> Because I got it work once
[10:38] <Kaur> by reinstalling acpid or gnome-power-manager or smth like that
[10:38] <logmein> DJ-_-: then grab a lighter linux live cd www.damnsmalllinux.org
[10:38] <aberry5555> logmein: it IS! I can issue ndiswrapper commands without doing ANYTHING in synaptic and ubuntu does NOT auto-recognise my card. it IS ndiswrapper
[10:38] <Kaur> but after reboot...
[10:38] <Kaur> It was broken again
[10:39] <logmein> aberry5555: ndiswrapper is there because you COMPILED IT
[10:39] <logmein> aberry5555: what were you expecting to be there a bunny rabbit?
[10:39] <DJ-_-> logmein: thx
[10:39] <aberry5555> I'm using a .inf driver to make it work, the problem Im having is a common one and is easily resolved by upgrading to a version of ndiswrapper newer than the repos, but I cant because it seems to be inlcuded in the kernel.
[10:39] <aberry5555> logmein: I didnt compile it, I swear
[10:40] <logmein> aberry5555: grab ndiswrapper source and do make uninstall then
[10:40] <Kaur> What program is responsible for registering the pushes of power/sleep buttons?
[10:40] <logmein> aberry5555: then do make clean
[10:40] <bullgard4> Frogzoo: Your answer is wrong. /etc/network/interfaces  is no routing table.

[10:48] <DJ-_-> anyone know why fdisk -s /dev/hda gives me some codes like the last one was : 6297480
[10:48] <serenecloud> or vim-full
[10:49] <serenecloud> or vim-gnome
[10:49] <gordonjcp> serenecloud: have you got vim installed, just plain vim with nothing after it?
[10:49] <serenecloud> correct, this machine just has feisty + updates
[10:50] <infernal_jesus> why does apt-get want to delete 165mb of files and only download 33mb when installing python-twisted
[10:50] <gordonjcp> serenecloud:
[10:50] <gordonjcp> serenecloud: http://pastebin.ca/558185
[10:50] <gordonjcp> what on that list do you have?
[10:51] <infernal_jesus> gordonjcp: you talking to me? :P lol
[10:51] <gordonjcp> infernal_jesus: not unless you can't get vim hilighting to work?
[10:51] <infernal_jesus> gordonjcp: ok sorry
[10:51] <serenecloud> gordonjcp: http://ninja.crimson.net.nz/output
[10:51] <ihmselbst> hi
[10:51] <gordonjcp> infernal_jesus: I don't know without looking at what packages it's trying to delete and what it's trying to install
[10:51] <gordonjcp> infernal_jesus: and even then... ;-)
[10:51] <gordonjcp> infernal_jesus: the ways of apt are often mysterious
[10:52] <shaf> is this chat like mirc? where you can download stuff?
[10:52] <shaf> I'm ne here... sorry

[10:52] <infernal_jesus> gordonjcp: it wants to remove abiword-gnome bluefish, gnome-office, gnome-panel, gnome-system-monitor, a lot of gnome packages

[10:53] <gordonjcp> serenecloud: you need to install vim
[10:53] <serenecloud> doing it now, but why did --version say vim 7.0?
[10:53] <gordonjcp> 'cos there are different vim packages
[10:54] <gordonjcp> I *think* Ubuntu ships with vim-tiny
[10:54] <DJ-_-> is there a way i can schedule a fsck at boot time?
[10:54] <serenecloud> ah, there we go

[10:55] <Andiamo> I installed Linux Ubuntu 7.4 without swap space. Is that wrong?
[10:55] <infernal_jesus> Andiamo: how much ram do you have?
[10:55] <Andiamo> 512 + 256
[10:55] <jjjj> hello i installed kubuntu feisty and i was really confused why I cant install firefox using ad/remove programs...other programs are also grayed and unselectable...it seems that the cd as well as my installation doesn't contain the packages...is this normal? uhmm one thing, I installed kubuntu not by using a CD but by copying the installer to the harddrive then editing my previous grub options to boot in the casper/initrd images...does that affect how my programs in
[10:55] <DJ-_-> Andiamo: what is ur ram specification
[10:56] <infernal_jesus> Andiamo: hm.. then you might need some swap space
[10:56] <Andiamo> and My vga card is build in , so it's need 128 of ram
[10:56] <infernal_jesus> use fdisk and create som
[10:56] <infernal_jesus> *some
[10:56] <Andiamo> I will install it a gain
[10:57] <Andiamo> but I want to learn How
[10:57] <DJ-_-> is xubuntu 7.04 having a lot of bugs? cuz i see some....or is 6.06 xubuntu better?

[10:57] <Andiamo> what is the deffrent between fx2 and fx 3
[10:57] <ihmselbst> *help*
[10:58] <bezak> ihmselbst: what?
[10:58] <Andiamo> the file syetem of ubuntu
[10:58] <olaf_> i'm about to make the switch to ubuntu
[10:58] <olaf_> weee (:
[10:58] <bezak> olaf_: w00t
[10:58] <ihmselbst> i want to install intltool
[10:58] <ihmselbst> bezak,
[10:58] <bezak> ihmselbst: yep
[10:58] <erUSUL> spheard: etch ?? mixing repositories ??
[10:58] <jenda> olaf_: good luck ;) I hope you'll like it.
[10:58] <olaf_> :)
[10:58] <ihmselbst> i haved download it and now i write in a terminal ./configure
[10:59] <olaf_> okay, this is going to seem like a dumb/easy question
[10:59] <bezak> ihmselbst: good
[10:59] <olaf_> but i want to be able to like... lock my computer like in Windows with a password and everything
[10:59] <CheshireViking> !ext3 | Andiamo
[10:59] <ubotu> Andiamo: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[10:59] <Andiamo> yes
[10:59] <olaf_> so i can walk away and flip off the monitor
[10:59] <ihmselbst> then make, then make install.. but he didn't change to version 0.35.5
[10:59] <Andiamo> yes Olaf
[10:59] <olaf_> how can i go about setting up a password/lock screen and stuff in Ubuntu?
[10:59] <infernal_jesus> olaf_: System > Lock Screen :)
[10:59] <Andiamo> Is that the best ? !ext3
[10:59] <bezak> olaf_: i think if you turn on the screensaver
[10:59] <ihmselbst> i want to install kiba-dock, it needs intltools 0.35.0...
[10:59] <olaf_> how can i set a password to the default user?
[10:59] <Andiamo> for ubuntu 7.4
[10:59] <bezak> olaf_: then set a password
[11:00] <Frogzoo> olaf_: sys -> prefs -> screen saver
[11:00] <olaf_> alright, thanks
[11:00] <bezak> olaf_: default user has a password already
[11:00] <olaf_> i'm converting some of my music from WMA to FLAC
[11:00] <olaf_> so i can hear all my music
[11:00] <olaf_> whilest in my new operating system
[11:00] <olaf_> WMA codec is apparently a bit bitchy in ubuntu
[11:00] <olaf_> and FLAC's better anyway
[11:01] <DJ-_-> what are the most needed services for xubuntu...a low resource machine..
[11:01] <Andiamo> What is the real fast !ext3 or ext2 ?
[11:01] <bezak> Andiamo: use ext3
[11:01] <Ve0> hiduk!
[11:01] <Andiamo> Thank you
[11:01] <bezak> Andiamo: i dont think ext2 has journaling
[11:01] <void^> wma isn't lossless, so converting to flac is a painful waste of diskspace :/
[11:01] <Ve0>    ?
[11:01] <olaf_> void^: WMA Lossless
[11:01] <Ve0> ?
[11:01] <corecode> hey
[11:01] <erUSUL> olaf_: a lossy format (wma) to a lossless format (flac)? not very wise is it?
[11:01] <olaf_> there are two WMAs
[11:01] <spheard> erUSUL: Just trying to get help from anywhere. not getting much help from #debian
[11:01] <Ds2C> hello
[11:01] <jjjj> ext3 i think...I have read that for harddisk greater then 6 gigabytes, ext3 is preffered because it will prevent frequent disk checks...
[11:02] <olaf_> i'm talking about WMA(L)
[11:02] <corecode> my middle button doesn't paste in firefox, any clues?
[11:02] <corecode> it works in xterm
[11:02] <void^> olaf_: really? okay.. never seen a lossless wma -  but i do avoid wma like the plague anyway :)
[11:02] <olaf_> yeah, i guess it was new to like... media player 9 or something
[11:03] <olaf_> you can rip from 96kbps to lossless
[11:03] <olaf_> or something like that
[11:03] <jjjj> ext3 i think...I have read that for harddisk greater then 6 gigabytes, ext3 is preffered because it will prevent frequent disk checks...
[11:04] <olaf_> i love how ubuntu recognizes everything out of the box on my computer but windows doesn't
[11:04] <Andiamo> I have a hard disk , four partitions . The first I will make it ext3 , but the next three partitions are Fat32. Did I must make all my partitions !ext3?
[11:04] <corecode> middlemouse
[11:04] <tuxcrafter> can someone post his output of this command please
[11:04] <tuxcrafter> ls -al /usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf\
[11:04] <tuxcrafter> ls -al /usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf
[11:04] <Andiamo> or not important?
[11:05] <hawk> cowbud: Odd....
[11:06] <hawk> Andiamo: You should have the system itself on ext3 or other linuxy filesystem (xfs, jfs, ...) at the very least...
[11:06] <void^> Andiamo: not important if you can live with fat32.
[11:06] <hawk> fat32 is quite sucky, but I guess it's useful for interoperability with Windows...
[11:06] <Andiamo> Yeah
[11:07] <Andiamo> Thanks for helping us
[11:07] <olaf_> us? schizophrenic?
[11:07] <tuxcrafter> ls -al /usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf
[11:07] <tuxcrafter> sombody that can give me his output
[11:07] <hawk> olaf_: The royal "us", maybe? ;)
[11:07] <tuxcrafter> if he has a cups-pdf installed of corse
[11:08] <olaf_> lol
[11:12] <fotoflo> wow, kde with the proper video drivers is SO MUCH BETTER then gnome
[11:14] <blue|palm> !jre
[11:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jre - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:14] <blue|palm> !java
[11:14] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre

[11:23] <void^> it should be enabled then
[11:23] <tuxcrafter> http://www.oooforum.org/
[11:24] <bezak> tuxcrafter: dont spam
[11:24] <olaf_> copying all my stuff to my external usb drive before installing ubuntu over everything is going to suck
[11:24] <tuxcrafter> bezak: does the website work with you?
[11:24] <keck0f> void^: do i have to install some more packages to use this feature? (i only installed "openssh-server" and "xterm" till now.)
[11:24] <bezak> olaf_: haha yes backing up is a pain
[11:25] <olaf_> but hey, i'm glad i have this external HDD
[11:25] <bslote> Is there a way to allow a process to use both cores of a dual core processor?
[11:25] <olaf_> (:
[11:25] <bezak> olaf_: yeah i think i will turn one of my hdds external wehn i buy a new one

[11:27] <skyion> Hi There, Im having trouble picking up a USB drive, I plug it in and it picks up on dmesg but not in gnome
[11:27] <gordonjcp> skyion: have you tried mounting it "by hand"?
[11:27] <bezak> olaf_: how come, cos its slow
[11:28] <olaf_> nah, don't wanna mess with dial-up on *nix
[11:28] <olaf_> and AOL uses a proprietary dial-up protocol
[11:28] <bezak> olaf_: ah ok, my dad runs ubuntu in vanuatu on dial up
[11:28] <bezak> olaf_: ah ok
[11:29] <olaf_> but now i have a modern computer, dsl, and i'm tired of microsoft
[11:29] <bezak> olaf_: well i hope you enjoy uubuntu land
[11:30] <olaf_> well, the most recent live cd was *awesome*
[11:30] <olaf_> i tried back in 5 or 6.0 or something
[11:30] <olaf_> and it barely worked worth a damn
[11:30] <olaf_> but 7.04 kicks some ass
[11:30] <maeth> im trying to access my samba shared folder via wifi in my pocketpc but with no success...
[11:31] <bezak> maeth: what security setting have you got set in your smb.conf
[11:32] <maeth> bezak, where is this smb.conf?
[11:32] <maeth> bezak, (usually)
[11:33] <bezak> /etc/samba/smb.conf
[11:34] <bezak> maeth: if youre just on a home network, you can set your security to "share" that might reduce your problems
[11:35] <maeth> k , gonna check
[11:35] <ziroday> does anyone have a guide for ubuntu 7.04 or even better xubuntu 7.04 installation off thumbdrive. And dont give ubotu its guides are out of date, thanks

[11:46] <soulwinter> bezak: hardcore :D
[11:46] <serenecloud> XChat grows on you
[11:46] <bezak> soulwinter: lol :)
[11:46] <serenecloud> not enough to stop em running mIRC on wine
[11:46] <serenecloud> *me
[11:46] <fotoflo> hmm, im having a wierd problem - i have a website that im trying to work on, and i can access it from my windows box but not my kubuntu box, both boxes are sharing the same internet connection
[11:47] <bezak> serenecloud: wow you must really love mirc
[11:47] <dvm> how can we get the serial no of use/flash drive?
[11:47] <serenecloud> bezak: miRC + NoNameScript, and yes
[11:47] <fotoflo> the kubuntu box gets a really wierd response, it looks like a script is bieng run on some other computer, i whosed the computer and it's at my ISP
[11:48] <jamiehd> Is it just me, or has pidgin vanished from repos
[11:48] <bezak> jamiehd: it flew away :)
[11:48] <Frogzoo> fotoflo: hacks are pretty rare, usually these things are just something you didn't expect
[11:48] <jamiehd> To where? I want to install it :P
[11:48] <fotoflo> Frogzoo, right
[11:49] <fotoflo> Frogzoo, what could it be??
[11:49] <soulwinter> Wine wine wine
[11:49] <soulwinter> neeed sum1 who err can help me with wine
[11:49] <bezak> jamiehd: no idea
[11:49] <alaQ> jamiehd: I had to add in a different repo for pidgin.
[11:49] <bezak> jamiehd: :D
[11:49] <fotoflo> Frogzoo, the site is resolving from the kubuntu box
[11:49] <jamiehd> ok, I thought they were all unhashed, I'll go check
[11:49] <Jimmey> soulwinter, what's the problem
[11:49] <fotoflo> theres nothing about it in /etc/hosts
[11:49] <magnetron> Wine is really one of the most impressing free software projects
[11:50] <bezak> magnetron: i respectfully disagree
[11:50] <bezak> magnetron: :)
[11:50] <osfameron> I've never got Wine to install usefully on Ubuntu...
[11:50] <DJ-_-> Frogzoo: my xubuntu's shutdown process fails on a p3 500mhz 128mb ram
[11:50] <magnetron> bexak, how come?=
[11:50] <osfameron> it always had the wrong version of something or other and just didn't work
[11:50] <soulwinter> Jimmey: cannot find a qip version < 8000, cannot start warcraft 3 tft, cannot start world of warcraft
[11:50] <magnetron> osfameron: it's easy to install
[11:50] <bezak> magnetron: haha because lots of stuff doesn't work.
[11:50] <dvm> how can we get the serial no of use/flash drive?
[11:51] <soulwinter> and yes, i read a bunch of tutorials and beryl, glrx and stuff is working (this is was my ubuntu says)
[11:51] <osfameron> magnetron: oh, right.   I must have just wasted several hours failing to get it to do anything useful, twice, for no good reason then :-)
[11:51] <DJ-_-> magnetron: my xubuntu's shutdown process fails on a p3 500mhz 128mb ram....i was on earlier too but no response...guess they did not know...any ideas man?
[11:51] <jamiehd> pidgin:
[11:51] <jamiehd> Package pidgin has no available version, but exists in the database.
[11:51] <jamiehd> This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents of sources.list
[11:51] <fog_proxy> Hi all. I want to gpg to add password protection for a tar file, is there any option to assign the password with command line? or use a script to auto do that?
[11:51] <osfameron> magnetron: I think wine itself installed, but the packiage to get IE etc. on it didn't work
[11:52] <magnetron> bezak: i would estimate they have implemented like 90% of the APIs of windows
[11:52] <magnetron> bezak: that your game doesn't work in wine is not that strange
[11:52] <Frogzoo> fotoflo: man gpg
[11:52] <bezak> magnetron: haha i know, i was j/k
[11:52] <Frogzoo> fog_proxy: man gpg (soz fotoflo)
[11:53] <bezak> magnetron: its just that they are fighting an uphill battle, and it will always be a race that they are losing.
[11:53] <fog_proxy> Frogzoo: I have searched the man page, but failed to find the option
[11:53] <fog_proxy> Frogzoo: that is why I come for help :/
[11:53] <magnetron> bezak: why? will MS change the API?
[11:53] <bezak> bezak: for example.
[11:54] <erUSUL> fog_proxy: gpg -c file  (to protect it with symmetric encryption)
[11:54] <magnetron> bezak: they can't do that, that would break the compatibility
[11:54] <erUSUL> fog_proxy: and yes it comes very clearly in the man page ;)
[11:54] <amaache> hello how to make keyboard qwerty(en-us) to azerty (fr-fr)?
[11:54] <fog_proxy> erUSUL: I see, but I want assign the password by auto(no need input)
[11:54] <dukedave> Coo, look at this shiny new xchat :)
[11:55] <magnetron> amaache: System > Preferences > Keyboard
[11:55] <alaQ> amaache: system > Preferences > keyboard, under the layouts tab.
[11:55] <magnetron> congratulations, dukedave!
[11:55] <fog_proxy> erUSUL: e.g. a option to assign password '-p', then I can do this, 'gpg -c filename -p mypassword'
[11:55] <amaache> in xsession?
[11:56] <magnetron> fog_proxy: i recommend using seahorse for gpg management
[11:56] <fotoflo> frogzoo: any idea why it appears like my ISP is intercepting a request for a certain website on my ubuntu box, but not on my windows box?
[11:56] <Jimmey> fotoflo, what address is the website?
[11:56] <DJ-_-> ok I am currently running a p3 1ghz 256mb ram on xp and having some servers on it..... I m planning to chg it to xubuntu...i got the alternate cd and i am starting now.,...if i need any help i hope i get response lol
[11:56] <serenecloud> fotoflo: do you have a URL?
[11:56] <fotoflo> www.kuaibbs.com
[11:57] <magnetron> fotoflo: someone, not the ISP, is doing a MITM on you?
[11:57] <fotoflo> MITM ?
[11:57] <bezak> man in the midde
[11:57] <serenecloud> fotoflo: both XP and Ubuntu dapper get it fine for me
[11:57] <dukedave> Man, don't know whether to submit a bug but had a usability pain with the "Keyboard Indicator" applet; namely the fact that by default the layout is Window specific. Suppose there must be some sanity behind not having it global by default :|
[11:57] <magnetron> fotoflo: man in the middle/monkey in the middle
[11:58] <serenecloud> i doubt it would be OS based
[11:58] <fotoflo> i get pointed to this page when i try to load from ubuntu: http://202.106.195.22:8088/response.asp?MT=www.kuaibbs.com
[11:59] <magnetron> fotoflo: that isn't your isp, that is your national firewall
[11:59] <c_> How do I set a script to run in the terminal each time it is opened?
[11:59] <serenecloud> I bet your windows version is cached
[11:59] <magnetron> c_: make a "launcher"
[11:59] <fotoflo> is that what you all get?
[11:59] <dukedave> DJ-_-: Should be fine, of course, if you're using the live CD you can always install xchat and come back in here while it's installing :)
[12:00] <fotoflo> http://202.106.195.22:8088/response.asp?MT=www.kuaibbs.com   <---
[12:00] <c_> It needs to run on start up.
[12:00] <serenecloud> fotoflo: I get a site with many colourful boxes
[12:00] <fog_proxy> How to use bash script to auto input the password for 'gpg -c file' prompt?
[12:00] <alaQ> c_: you can add it to one of your .initrc file in your home directory.
[12:00] <fotoflo> serenecloud, yeah, thats what you should be getting
[12:00] <fotoflo> thats what i get on my windows box
[12:00] <serenecloud> fotoflo: from both windows and linux
[12:00] <fog_proxy> I tried ' <<EOF password password EOF '  but not work
[12:01] <fotoflo> still the right site on windows
[12:01] <fotoflo> i think i havea  bad setting on my linux box
[12:01] <DJ-_-> dukedave: thx atleast 1 response
[12:03] <DJ-_-> brb
[12:03] <dukedave> Heh, well it was a rather open-ended question. Would have made sense 5 years ago but these days with lots of distros which Really Work you have to be a bit more specific ;)
[12:03] <magnetron> fotoflo: try this DNS server: 208.67.222.222
[12:04] <magnetron> fotoflo: http://www.opendns.com/start/ubuntu.php
[12:04] <serenecloud> fotoflo: what does this site say: http://202.108.22.159/ ?
[12:04] <fotoflo> serenecloud, that looks like baidu
[12:05] <serenecloud> your MT=... URL sent me that script
[12:05] <serenecloud> since my IE doesn't run Javascript it didn't do anything, but that URL was in it
[12:05] <fotoflo> baidu (china's google) says that it cant request from that address
[12:05] <serenecloud> I see
[12:05] <serenecloud> i'll PM you the script
[12:05] <doug_> Anyone have experience using windows based e-books with embedded midi files?
[12:05] <olaf_> if i install from the ubuntu live cd
[12:05] <olaf_> versus the install cd
[12:06] <olaf_> will install any differently?
[12:06] <magnetron> olaf_: no
[12:06] <olaf_> okay
[12:06] <dukedave> olaf_: You might be slightly more bored with the install CD :)
[12:06] <alaQ> olaf_: the installs will be the same - the only difference is that one puts you into the live environment.
[12:06] <magnetron> doug_: in what format is the e-book?
[12:07] <thedrummer> what should i do to change standart icon of "main menu" panel ?
[12:07] <fotoflo> magnetron
[12:07] <olaf_> but if i'm using it as my permanent desktop
[12:07] <doug_> Magnetron how can I tell what the format is?
[12:07] <olaf_> nevermind
[12:07] <magnetron> doug_: ask the one who distributed the e-book
[12:08] <fotoflo> magnetron, where do i put my dns server?
[12:08] <magnetron> fotoflo: http://www.opendns.com/start/ubuntu.php
[12:08] <doug_> Magnetron hold on and I will take a look on the website for the ebook compiler software
[12:09] <magnetron> doug_: what is the website?
[12:09] <fotoflo> cool
[12:10] <Maverynthia> :E
[12:11] <doug_> Magnetron here is what it says on the web site: Simply create a set HTML files containing the information you want to sell, and then run Activ E-Book Compiler - and you'll have a self-contained Windows Program (".EXE") which users can download and run, to view your E-Book. You can even restrict access to parts of your E-Book with passwords, include links to relevant web sites, or sell advertising space in your E-Book.
[12:11] <fotoflo> wow found the problem!
[12:11] <doug_> Anybody with Windows 95 or better, and Internet Explorer 4 or later, which is of course the vast majority of web surfers, can use your E-Books.
[12:11] <fotoflo> for some reason "kuaibbs.com" was in my search domains
[12:11] <fotoflo> thanks guys
[12:11] <magnetron> doug_: so it is a .EXE , a windows program
[12:12] <magnetron> doug_: a windows application that is
[12:12] <doug_> yes it is.
[12:12] <doug_> And it would seem that it is in html format
[12:12] <doug_> with embedded midi files.
[12:12] <magnetron> doug_: it's not both an EXE and HTML in the same time?
[12:13] <Flyinion> hey all, anyone familiar with Ubuntu Studio and Nvidia drivers?
[12:13] <doug_> The website is http://www.ebookcompiler.com/
[12:13] <doug_> Actually I think it is both an .exe and in html format.
[12:13] <magnetron> doug_: if it's in html format, then just find the .html and double-click it in firefox
[12:14] <Sarazar> hi all.... anyone here know udev well?
[12:14] <magnetron> !anyone | Sarazar
[12:14] <ubotu> Sarazar: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[12:14] <Plantain> Compiz or Beryl?
[12:14] <doug_> But the html is bound up in the .exe.
[12:15] <magnetron> doug_: then it's not html
[12:15] <predaeus> doug_, probably it just runs IE on the contained html.
[12:15] <Sarazar> ok... how do I get udev to start synce-serial-start when my ipaq is plugged in the ubuntu forum solution no longer works
[12:16] <doug_> Predaeus is there any way I could get it to run with Ubuntu?
[12:16] <magnetron> you can run some windows programs in ubuntu, using Wine. Wine is a compatibility layer that let's you run windows applications.
[12:16] <doug_> I will try that first, Magnetron.
[12:17] <magnetron> !wine | doug_
[12:17] <ubotu> doug_: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[12:17] <magnetron> doug_: could you give us an URL to a sample e-book in that format?
[12:17] <doug_> Thanks guys.
[12:17] <_Carlo_> hi, is it possible to set an umask permission just to a directory and not the whole filesystem?
[12:18] <predaeus> doug_, if you have more information about the format you can probably just strip the binary executable part of the file and open the rest as a regular html file.
[12:18] <magnetron> predaeus: reverse engineer, you are? :) i guess it's in zip format
[12:19] <dromer> hi all, I just read that nvidia twinview should be easy now with feisty .. but when I use the nvidia-settings .. my 2nd screen is detected, but I can't see where to enable twinview ..
[12:19] <doug_> No it is just an .exe file - but I can't send it to you because it violates the user agreement.
[12:19] <alaQ> Sarazar: if you have a little practice in scripting, you can define a rule for it in the /etc/udev/rules.d/ directory.  Not something I'd play around lightly with though.
[12:20] <thedrummer> can somebody tell me the easiest way to install firefox flash plug-in for amd64 ?
[12:20] <doug_> Thanks very much guys, I appreciate the help.
[12:20] <Sarazar> alaQ, I have a udev rule file for it.. it used to work but no longer seemed to stop with fiesty
[12:20] <predaeus> magnetron, probably yea :-)    no not really just thinking about possibilities.
[12:21] <alaQ> Sarazar: hrm.  How does the rule file ID the device?
[12:21] <magnetron> predaeus: that IS reverse engineering
[12:21] <predaeus> magnetron, :-)
[12:22] <alaQ> thedrummer: check ubuntuguide.org - it's got a lot of tips for setting things up like that.
[12:22] <Sarazar> thats what has me baffled udev no longer seems to run the rules.. udev is seeing the ipaq and Id'in iit fine.. doesnt seem to hit the rule file though
[12:22] <Plantain> which one should I install? :S
[12:22] <thedrummer> thx
[12:22] <ziroday> Plantain: beryl
[12:23] <Plantain> ziroday: So Compiz merged into Beryl rather than Beryl into Compiz?
[12:23] <bezak> Plantain: if you want lots of plugins beryl, if you want any semblance of stability with a few plugins, compiz
[12:23] <ziroday> Plantain: plus theyre merged now so it dosnt matter
[12:23] <Plantain> Which one is the master project?
[12:23] <bezak> Plantain: neither theyre merging
[12:23] <alaQ> Plantain, ziroday:  As I know it, Compiz came first, Beryl forked.
[12:23] <ziroday> Plantain: right now theyre still merging
[12:23] <alaQ> oh, they're merging now?
[12:23] <Dimensions> hiya ... how do i remove RSA keys identification from a ubuntu system ??
[12:23] <Sarazar> ahh..... I wonder if its hitting and earlier rules file and stopping... let me check
[12:23] <Plantain> Yeah, I know they're merging, I'm just not sure which one is going to be the 'new' one. (Will Beryl disappear or Compiz?)
[12:24] <bezak> beryl was a compiz fork, now its merging back together
[12:24] <ziroday> alaQ: yeah beryl stole most of Compiz's userbase with the flashy features :)
[12:24] <bezak> to become BERPIZ!!!
[12:24] <ziroday> Plantain: new name i think
[12:24] <predaeus> see http://compiz.org/ for details
[12:24] <ziroday> Plantain: gonna have a face lift like gaim > pidgin
[12:24] <alaQ> they don't have a name yet - forums are up at www.opencompositing.org.
[12:24] <hgh> I just installed Nexuiz but when I start a game the character looks upp, I can look around with the mouse but it looks up right away. It's like some key is pressed in so it looks up and rotates on its own. Any ideas on what to do?
[12:25] <Plantain> I think I'll just avoid it for a while
[12:25] <ziroday> hgh: look down?
[12:25] <Plantain> wait until there's an new project
[12:25] <predaeus> hgh, have you got a joystick with throttle plugged?
[12:25] <predaeus> hgh, then zero the throttle
[12:25] <ziroday> Plantain: you shouldnt its awesome
[12:25] <Plantain> ziroday: But it's not going to be more than a few weeks, is it?
[12:26] <alaQ> ziroday: some moved to beryl because of Compiz's ties with Novell.
[12:26] <hgh> predaeus: it's turned off but I'll unplug it and try again
[12:26] <predaeus> hgh, just an idea, had that with some other game
[12:26] <fotoflo> weird, that site opens in konqueror, but not in FF
[12:26] <ziroday> alaQ: yeah and that compiz wasnt investigating the flashy features
[12:26] <odyssey> how do i install wine, i have synaptic open and the universe repo enabled and its just not there
[12:26] <ziroday> Plantain: dunno it could be a while
[12:26] <ziroday> Plantain: plus beryl is stable enough
[12:26] <fotoflo> cleared the cache, works now
[12:27] <predaeus> odyssey, if you are on amd64 you will have to do a workaround as wine is 32bit only I think
[12:27] <Frogzoo> !wine | odyssey: use the budgetdedicated repo
[12:27] <ubotu> odyssey: use the budgetdedicated repo: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[12:27] <hgh> Nope, still looks upp and turns to the right
[12:27] <predaeus> hgh, hm no idea, try scanning their forums
[12:29] <k0rnz> how do I update my apt-get sources to allow me to install Automatix2?
[12:29] <k0rnz> I tried this howto http://www.softsift.com/200704/automatix2-11-310-for-ubuntu-704-feisty-fawn.html but it does not work
[12:29] <Frogzoo> k0rnz: automatix isn't supported here -> #automatix
[12:30] <k0rnz> ok thanks
[12:30] <PriceChild> !automatix | k0rnz
[12:30] <ubotu> k0rnz: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use.

[12:30] <alaQ> ziroday: apparently, on the opencompositing forums, the most popular new name for Beryl/compiz is Coral
[12:30] <being_free> Hmmm

[12:33] <zipper> Anyone managed to find a way to use ALL buttons on a logitech MX510 or MX518 mouse? I cant seem to find any good guides for it on the web
[12:33] <haf> I hope that there will soon be an official apt rep for the new Beryl/Coral :)
[12:34] <pbn> Hello, I have just installed ubuntu on a dual-cpu machine, and cat /proc/cpuinfo sees only one processor ! What can I do ?
[12:34] <zipper> pbn: i think you need to install a SMP kernel
[12:34] <dromer> hi all, having trouble getting X to start up, I did some minor tweaking to xorg.conf just now, but didn't work, so changed it back .. now X wont come up
[12:34] <pbn> zipper: ah :)
[12:34] <dromer> I get the ubuntu-splash and that's it ..
[12:35] <pbn> zipper: I need to apt-cache search smp kernel, then apt-get install, and reboot, that's all ?
[12:35] <zipper> pbn: i would believe so, yes. Actually, i need to do that myself too now we're talking about it
[12:35] <pbn> zipper: heh :)
[12:35] <zipper> hmm
[12:36] <zipper> pbn: linux-686-smp is apparently obsolete
[12:36] <pbn> zipper: wait, this is Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
[12:36] <defrysk> the generic kernel also supports smp
[12:36] <pbn> defrysk: the generic kernel... on feisty I guess heh ?
[12:37] <zipper> pbn: oooh... i'm using feisty, but it seems like the package has been replaced by "linux-image-2.6.20-15-generic"
[12:37] <defrysk> dapper I am not sure of but I believe smp is supported by default.
[12:37] <tom__> Hey guys, i've just isntalled xinetd (to get SWAT working), but now i cant seem to use any of the gnome admin tools... :S http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/6417/toolsbeingapainvv5.png
[12:37] <zipper> defrysk: i'm pretty sure i didnt have smp support by default on my dual-core intel d805 when running dapper
[12:38] <defrysk> zipper, as I said....
[12:38] <defrysk> it means I could be wrong
[12:38] <Hor|zon> on dapper you have to select the smp kernel after install, well I did back then
[12:38] <zipper> heh, same could i.... only "pretty" sure :)
[12:38] <Hor|zon> then from edgy you used generic
[12:39] <defrysk> yes
[12:39] <defrysk> looks like it
[12:39] <predaeus> probably look for SMP options in the kernel config in /boot   like if CONFIG_SMP=y  or so, not sure what options are needed
[12:39] <predaeus> CONFIG_SMP=y on feisty
[12:40] <predaeus> mind that those are compile time options and will not result in changes to your system if you change them now
[12:41] <predaeus> they config files are just provided by the kernel packages for reference on what options they compiled with
[12:43] <predaeus> s/they/the
[12:44] <Plantain> Under 7.04 should I still manually edit my sources.list file, or use the Software Sources preference?
[12:45] <predaeus> Plantain, better use the preference interface, although it should not make a difference unless you add options or totally remove them
[12:46] <Plantain> So, if I uncheck all the tick boxes in the preference, but have the usual sources in my sources.list file, it wont affect anything adversely? (I'll still get updates etc?)
[12:46] <tuskernini> Plantain: if you are looking for normal music and video codecs... i went to applications add/remove and looked for the codecs... and i also got something popping up when i wanted to view unsupported formats... it was done automatically if memory serves me right
[12:46] <predaeus> Plantain, I think the Sources Preferences dialog just edits the sources.list file
[12:46] <Plantain> Okay, I'll just ignore the preferences dialog
[12:46] <k0rnz> GPG error: http://www.getautomatix.com feisty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY CC919A31E23C5FC3
[12:47] <tuskernini> Plantain: ok i see it is not what you want
[12:47] <k0rnz> how do I fix that error?
[12:47] <k0rnz> says the public gpg key is not availble?
[12:47] <tuskernini> k0rnz: dont use automatix?
[12:47] <Hor|zon> k0rnz, go to the automatix website and get their gpg key from their install instructions
[12:47] <tuskernini> k0rnz: or go to automatix.com or whatever and get the key
[12:47] <Hor|zon> and yeah, automatix sucks
[12:48] <Plantain> There used to be a huge long list of breif how-to's for just about everything, where did that go?
[12:48] <tuskernini> Plantain: where did it used to be?
[12:48] <kane77> how does the middle button paste work? it only copies if _I_ select it with mouse?

[12:51] <zipper> (which it usually does)
[12:51] <slippyr4> zipper yes, thanks. i see from doing an apt-get -s upgrade that it wants to upgrade my kernel. I have a custom build module which my system needs to boot, how does that affect things?

[12:55] <stefg> that's the 'easy OSX', i see... :-)
[12:55] <Plantain> haha
[12:55] <Plantain> No, lazy OSX XD
[12:55] <Tom|AT|Windows> Plaintain, Chatzilla doesnt
[12:56] <Plantain> Hmm
[12:56] <Tom|AT|Windows> >	Guys, on my linux box, it says that the gnome settings daemon restarted too many times -- maybe this is why i have blank admin tools?
[12:56] <Plantain> Those that it does work for, try joining #plantain.rules
[12:56] <bezak> Tom|AT|Windows: what do you mean blank admin tools
[12:57] <Tom|AT|Windows> 1 second let me find my screenshot
[12:57] <bezak> Tom|AT|Windows: rgr
[12:57] <jonathan_> somebody know how to install file .tar.gz?
[12:57] <Plantain> jonathan_: That's a compressed file
[12:57] <bezak> jonathan_: thats a zippd archive
[12:57] <Tom|AT|Windows> http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/6417/toolsbeingapainvv5.png
[12:57] <bezak> just double click it and itll expand
[12:57] <jonathan_> what should I do woth those files?
[12:58] <Tom|AT|Windows> running 6.06 LTS
[12:58] <degreseven> can anyone help me get a samba share mounted? This fstab entry worked fine for me in gentoo (which i just switched from), but it just hangs in ubuntu... //ramrod/public        /media/ramrod     smbfs           guest,uid=1000 0 0
[12:58] <PriceChild> jonathan_, what are you trying to install?
[12:58] <jonathan_> vmware tools
[12:58] <bezak> Tom|AT|Windows: i doubt its gnome settings daemon
[12:58] <bezak> when did you restart last
[12:58] <bezak> have you tried restarting x
[12:58] <Tom|AT|Windows> just now, seeing if it would fix it.
[12:58] <Tom|AT|Windows> the only thing ive installed recently is xinetd
[12:59] <Tom|AT|Windows> for SWAT
[12:59] <jonathan_> I'm trying to install vmware tools
[12:59] <stefg> degreseven: first of all you should use cifs instead of smbfs... and you should have a look at fusesmb, which is just nicer
[12:59] <jonathan_> somebody help me with those files
[12:59] <bezak> jonathan_: so is that the source to compile it?
[12:59] <jonathan_> yes
[12:59] <jonathan_> vmwaretools.tar.gz
[12:59] <stefg> !info fusesmb | degreseven
[12:59] <ubotu> degreseven: fusesmb: filesystem client based on the SMB file transfer protocol. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.5-1 (feisty), package size 26 kB, installed size 140 kB
[01:00] <bezak> jonathan_: if you are a linux beginner compiling programs is probably not recommended
[01:00] <cyberpunk69> Hi Guys
[01:00] <bezak> hey
[01:00] <jonathan_> I'm just trying to learn linux
[01:01] <mx-zoom> bezak: why not? compiling programs is easy
[01:01] <jonathan_> I can't using any windows anymore
[01:01] <jonathan_> I'm only can using linux
[01:01] <Tom|AT|Windows> jonathan_, check in Synaptic i think its in there already compiled
[01:01] <jonathan_> Synaptic?
[01:01] <jonathan_> ok
[01:01] <gnomefreak> jonathan_: why not install apps with apt-get or synaptic
[01:01] <bezak> mx-zoom: yes but it can trip up in a lot of places
[01:01] <cyberpunk69> can anybody advise me on what would be the best data recovery software for me to use to recover a fat 32 partition
[01:01] <zipper> Anyone managed to find a way to use ALL buttons on a logitech MX510 or MX518 mouse? I cant seem to find any good guides for it on the web
[01:01] <Tom|AT|Windows> Package Manager, System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager
[01:02] <jonathan_> I just want to learn to compiling programs
[01:02] <mx-zoom> bezak: of course. so can an update via apt or a package installation via dpkg screw up
[01:02] <degreseven> stefg thanks, but fusesmb doesnt sound like what i want. I'd rather just get the one share mounted
[01:02] <jonathan_> so, I can install any software
[01:02] <bezak> mx-zoom: yes but you must admit its a hell of a lot less likey
[01:02] <bezak> jonathan_: yes on ubuntu you use add/remove programs
[01:02] <zipper> jonathan_: its usually quite simple. Most come with a README or INSTALL that explains how to compile the specific code.
[01:02] <jonathan_> because my computer not always connected to the internet so I need to learn
[01:03] <bezak> jonathan_: or synaptic
[01:03] <Plantain> How might I change from the generic kernel to a specialized one?
[01:03] <jonathan_> hm...
[01:03] <Plantain> Which should I use for a P4?
[01:03] <stefg> degreseven: can you guarantee that the smb-server is always up when you start the client? Then it's ok... otherwise you'll get boot-delays and failed mounts
[01:03] <zipper> jonathan_: oh, if you only want to use it to install applications, use apt, synaptic or adept instead.
[01:03] <jonathan_> ok
[01:03] <Tom|AT|Windows> Plantain, is your P4 Hyperthreaded?
[01:03] <zipper> Plantain: if you want a specialized one, configure and compile one yourself. It sounds harder than it actually is.
[01:04] <Tom|AT|Windows> True, even i did it back in RH9 days (i was 13)
[01:04] <jonathan_> install file.deb is more easier than file.tar.gz
[01:04] <bezak> Tom|AT|Windows: howd that blank window problem go?
[01:04] <mx-zoom> Plantain: what do you mean by specialized?
[01:04] <jonathan_> but not always works
[01:04] <Tom|AT|Windows> still happening.... but only on some tools -- the disks are now working, but network tools arent
[01:05] <bezak> jonathan_: .deb files are always better if you can find them
[01:05] <Tom|AT|Windows> i think its just being very very slow, but i dont know :(
[01:05] <cyberpunk69> what is the best program to use to recover a fat 32 partition please help
[01:05] <Tom|AT|Windows> if theres no more ideas, im gonna update to 6.10 and then to 7
[01:05] <jonathan_> but, when I'm downloaded cedega at my computer
[01:05] <jonathan_> than my computer goes offline
[01:05] <jonathan_> I can't install those file.deb
[01:05] <stefg> !info testdisk  | cyberpunk69

[01:05] <bezak> jonathan_: thats because it probably needs to install some other programs too
[01:05] <mx-zoom> jonathan_: dpkg -i *.deb
[01:06] <bezak> mx-zoom: gdebi does that via the gui
[01:06] <Plantain> Tom|AT|Windows: Yes
[01:06] <Plantain> By 'specialized' I mean from generic to i586 or something
[01:06] <mx-zoom> bezak: you gui lovers xD
[01:06] <bezak> mx-zoom: haha its much noob friendlier :)

[01:07] <Plantain> Oh
[01:07] <jonathan_> dpkg -i *.deb ??
[01:07] <Plantain> Okay
[01:07] <bezak> jonathan_: just double click it it should then open up a gui to install it
[01:07] <Tom|AT|Ubuntu> Now i can't launch nautilus, (nautilus:7599): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
[01:07] <jonathan_> oh...
[01:07] <jonathan_> and how to install .rpm?
[01:07] <bezak> Tom|AT|Windows: have you restarted yet?
[01:08] <jonathan_> is that as easy as .deb?
[01:08] <Tom|AT|Windows> twice
[01:08] <bezak> jonathan_: don't install .rpm's on ubuntu
[01:08] <Tom|AT|Windows> im gonna update it all, hopefully that fixes it
[01:08] <bezak> jonathan_: install .debs
[01:08] <Rich_LI-NY> Xubuntu 6.10 Cant get sound to work corectly (noise) and cant get mic to work at all.  System says I have a Yahama OPL#-SA23 but  I have onboard sound on Intel AL440LX motherboard.   What can  I do to fix this?
[01:08] <jonathan_> oh...
[01:08] <bezak> Tom|AT|Windows: have you changed any of the permissions in your folders recently
[01:08] <jonathan_> ok
[01:08] <bezak> Tom|AT|Windows: i did that onece and it borked gnome harddcore
[01:08] <Tom|AT|Windows> Damn
[01:08] <bezak> Tom|AT|Windows: because it didn't have access to all of the .gnome files
[01:09] <jonathan_> so, .rpm not always use at every distro?
[01:09] <bezak> jonathan_: yeah rpms are used by  some distros such as fedora
[01:09] <kbrooks> jonathaN, no
[01:09] <kbrooks> bezak, say no
[01:09] <kbrooks> bezak, you are confusing him
[01:09] <bezak> no...
[01:09] <Tom|AT|Windows> Admin tools run as root... which is strange cos they aren't even asking me for the root password
[01:09] <jonathan_> yes....
[01:09] <jonathan_> :P
[01:10] <kbrooks> jonathan_, rpm is not used by every distro imaginable
[01:10] <jonathan_> deb too??
[01:10] <bezak> kbrooks: didnt i just say that?
[01:10] <kbrooks> bezak, no
[01:10] <bezak> lol now i'm confused
[01:10] <jonathan_> I'm using ubuntu because my friends told ubuntu much more easier than any distros
[01:11] <Tom|AT|Windows> jonathan_: it is, much easier than Fedora
[01:11] <kbrooks> bezak, well, you probably said that, but negation can be confusing sometimes
[01:11] <bezak> heres how it is simply: if you want to install programs use add/remove programs or .debs
[01:11] <Tom|AT|Windows> doesn't usually break as easily
[01:11] <jonathan_> and this is my first time using LINUX
[01:11] <jonathan_> I'm moved from windows to linux
[01:11] <kbrooks> jonathan_, you might want to be aware of one thing
[01:11] <bezak> jonathan_: if you go to the applications menu at the bottom there is a button that says "add/remove programs"
[01:11] <kbrooks> (may i correct jonathan_ ?)
[01:11] <jonathan_> yes
[01:12] <jonathan_> what kind of thing I should aware?
[01:12] <kbrooks> jonathan_, you did not move from windows to the kernel.
[01:12] <mx-zoom> jonathan_: you should try gentoo
[01:12] <valehru> is it me or my browser because I am looking at technorati.com and all the images seem to be transparent....the text ones....its really weird
[01:12] <jonathan_> what is gentoo?
[01:12] <bezak> mx-zoom: are you seriously trying to confuse this guy
[01:12] <kbrooks> jonathan_, you moved from windows to a operating system named ubuntu
[01:13] <kbrooks> jonathan_, "linux" is not a operating system.
[01:13] <kbrooks> jonathan_, ubuntu is
[01:13] <jonathan_> yes! And I'm still 15 years old!
[01:13] <Tom|AT|Windows> jonathan_: go into System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager
[01:13] <tchewy> hi
[01:13] <Tom|AT|Windows> search and you will find LOTS of useful apps that are replacements for windows ones
[01:13] <kbrooks> (i'm 16, ffyi)
[01:13] <Tom|AT|Windows> jonathan, im 16
[01:13] <bezak> kbrooks: which is altogether completely irrelevant to helping him learn how to install programs...
[01:13] <Tom|AT|Windows> :D
[01:13] <jonathan_> :D
[01:13] <tchewy> got a pb with l2tp(d) over ipsec
[01:13] <kbrooks> bezak, i know.
[01:13] <jonathan_> great
[01:14] <mx-zoom> bezak: not really. gentoo is harder to install but simpler to use lol
[01:14] <Plantain> pff
[01:14] <Tom|AT|Windows> How many people in this IRC are 16
[01:14] <Tom|AT|Windows> xD
[01:14] <Plantain> gentoo confused me beyond belief
[01:14] <jonathan_> I'm tried installed fedora before
[01:14] <Plantain> Tom: I think it's the sweet spot ;)
[01:14] <jonathan_> and I couldn't find any driver
[01:14] <magnetron> !offtopic
[01:14] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:14] <gordonjcp> kbrooks: in general people refer to Linux-based operating systems as "Linux" generically
[01:14] <jonathan_> and I can't install those one
[01:14] <jonathan_> fedora 5.0
[01:15] <kbrooks> gordonjcp, only because it is easier. :-)
[01:15] <jonathan_> ........
[01:15] <tchewy> i ve a dedic and im triin to install vpn but when a client is connected, all trafic is redirect to the vpn... no http access nor ssh nor even ping except trough vpn ips (nodefaultroute option activated, thoug)
[01:15] <jonathan_> ok
[01:15] <gordonjcp> kbrooks: exactly
[01:15] <jonathan_> we see you next time
[01:15] <jonathan_> thank you all
[01:15] <jonathan_> bye2
[01:15] <gnomefreak> guys please try to stay on topic
[01:15] <gordonjcp> kbrooks: same reason we say "hoover" instead of "vacuum cleaner"
[01:15] <kbrooks> gordonjcp, yeah
[01:15] <gordonjcp> kbrooks: I suggest you don't dig people up on minor issues like this if you're keen to be 17 some day
[01:16] <magnetron> feel free to join #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:16] <gordonjcp> kbrooks: ;-)
[01:16] <gnomefreak> gordonjcp: kbrooks join #ubuntu-offtopic for this discussion please
[01:17] <kbrooks> anyway
[01:17] <kbrooks> gnomefreak, no thank you, i'll stop
[01:20] <bezak> gnomefreak: well that sure quietened things down in here :)
[01:20] <Rich_LI-NY> Xubuntu 6.10 Cant get sound to work corectly (noise) and cant get mic to work at all.  System says I have a Yahama OPL#-SA23 but  I have onboard sound on Intel AL440LX motherboard.   What can  I do to fix this?
[01:20] <Tom|AT|Windows> Anyway... I hope this update fixes those tools -- gksu wasn't asking me for my password, so i think they were trying to run in user mode rahter than as root which is weird
[01:20] <Tom|AT|Windows> Rich -- possibly a Yamaha chip which is why it says that
[01:22] <Rich_LI-NY> Ok..... but I cant be the only one out there wil an AL440LX MB and unbuntu/xubuntu on it
[01:22] <bezak> Tom|AT|Windows: that sounds like a permissions problem to me
[01:22] <Tom|AT|Windows> problem is, i haven't changed any permissions
[01:22] <bezak> Tom|AT|Windows: i would try and make sure all your home folder permissions are in order
[01:22] <Rich_LI-NY> I would agree there is a chip that also found on yamaha cards.
[01:22] <Tom|AT|Windows> unless xinetd install has changed them
[01:22] <valehru> Is there reason why technorati is not rendering properly on Feisty is because of firefox?  This is what I am seeing right now: http://beilabs.com/Screenshot.png
[01:23] <nephilim> net
[01:23] <wrzask> valehru, (joke) Stop shaking your monitor.
[01:23] <wrzask> ;)
[01:24] <bezak> valehru: do you have a diff browser like konq?
[01:24] <valehru> wrzask, :)
[01:24] <valehru> bezak, no...will install it now.
[01:24] <bezak> valehru: see how that goes
[01:24] <valehru> bezak, its not the first site I've seen it one
[01:24] <bezak> mb its a font thing
[01:24] <Frogzoo> valehru: check your font settings in ff
[01:25] <valehru> Frogzoo, ok..
[01:25] <bezak> valehru: try a diff font
[01:25] <Rich_LI-NY> I give up.. I have beenplaying with this off and on for a month now.
[01:25] <bezak> like verdana or something
[01:25] <Rich_LI-NY> you guy have a great day
[01:25] <rapter> M y mouse is like sivering it constantly blocks itself like staing behind. Can I fix it?
[01:25] <valehru> bezak, the font wasn't selected...empty...whats the default?
[01:26] <bezak> valehru: i dunno
[01:26] <bezak> valehru: i have the ms fonts installed and have epiph. use verdana
[01:26] <jscinoz> Hey guys
[01:26] <valehru> don't have them installed..
[01:26] <valehru> will do it now
[01:27] <rapter>  When I move ithe mouse reacts with intreruptions.
[01:27] <jscinoz> I recently attempted to install the 100.4.9 nvidia drivers that came out a few days ago, but if i  start X with them enabled i get "failed to run install command" and X dies, how can i fix this?
[01:27] <valehru> bezak, msttcorefonts right?
[01:28] <bezak> valehru: yeah mun
[01:28] <defrysk> bezak, too much hinting
[01:28] <bezak> defrysk: sorry?
[01:28] <defrysk> anti aliassing
[01:28] <defrysk> too much
[01:28] <jscinoz> Hey guys, when i start X with nvidia drivers 100.4.9 enabled i get "FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia" what can i do to make them work?
[01:28] <defrysk> bezak, turn of anti aliassing for smaller fonts
[01:29] <bezak> defrysk: where
[01:29] <bezak> bezak: lol i dont have a problem
[01:29] <defrysk> bezak, system > prefs > fonts
[01:30] <defrysk> bezak, select details
[01:30] <bezak> defrysk: haha its valehru with the font problem not me
[01:30] <defrysk> set hinting to none or mediam
[01:30] <bezak> defrysk: my fonts are great
[01:30] <valehru> bezak, lol
[01:30] <defrysk> ok ok nm
[01:30] <defrysk> ;p
[01:30] <bezak> :)
[01:31] <defrysk> hinting and anti-aliasing makes me nauseous
[01:31] <bezak> defrysk: haha youve gotta have a little
[01:32] <defrysk> bezak, wonder if it can give people epileptic attacks
[01:32] <mr_daniel> i am using irssi. To copy a link into it i need to perform a mouse>right_click>paste
[01:32] <valehru> defrysk, but that doesnt have anything to do with the screenshot I gave:
[01:32] <mr_daniel> the usual shortcut CTRL+V isn't working in a console
[01:32] <bezak> mr_daniel: you know any workaround to that as its kinda annoying
[01:32] <valehru> defrysk, http://beilabs.com/Screenshot.png
[01:32] <bezak> you can ctrl shift paste
[01:33] <mr_daniel> is there maybe a other shortcut to paste into a console?
[01:33] <defrysk> valehru, you could set the dpi a bit higher in your browser
[01:33] <defrysk> or in your desktop
[01:33] <defrysk> anyway have to do something else
[01:33] <valehru> 96dpi...
[01:33] <valehru> ummm
[01:34] <valehru> defaults I am using here on feisty
[01:34] <defrysk> valehru, should be ok then
[01:35] <valehru> hmm...but technorati doesnt seem to be borked for anyone else though.
[01:35] <Frogzoo> mr_daniel: ctrl shift v
[01:35] <Tom|AT|Windows> valehru: works for me
[01:35] <stefg> valehru, i think you have some poorly hinted fonts installed, and the font used on the site gets replaced with one of those poor fonts. either set the fonts for firefox to not allow websites to override your settings, or uninstall the (useless) fonts
[01:36] <paabmu> quien eres
[01:36] <valehru> stefg, ahh there we go
[01:36] <valehru> stefg, thanks a million
[01:36] <jonathan_> back again
[01:37] <jscinoz> Hey guys, my laptop consistently runs 5-10*C hotter when i'm using the nvidia driver as opposed to nv, any ideas why this happens?
[01:37] <paabmu> hola ramla
[01:37] <bezak> jscinoz: probably the driver lol
[01:37] <jonathan_> test
[01:37] <ramla> paabmu: have we met?
[01:37] <jscinoz> bezak, yeah i know since it only happens using that driver, but i need something more specific
[01:37] <jonathan_> ramla: no! :P
[01:38] <jscinoz> also i cannot get AGP to work for the life of me
[01:38] <ramla> o_O
[01:38] <bezak> jscinoz: i'm not sure, problem is its closed source so who knows
[01:38] <jscinoz> :(
[01:39] <jscinoz> alright, next problem: I cannot get NvAGP or to work no matter how hard i try, i have it enabled in my xorg.conf, but if i cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status i get "AGP initialization failed" what should i do?
[01:39] <stefg> jscinoz: it is pretty logical that a 3d enabled driver eats mor cpu-cycles than a 2d-only driver, no?
[01:39] <jonathan_> can you help me to choose a good distros
[01:39] <jonathan_> I distros who can install any package
[01:40] <NET||abuse> will the edgy boot dvd support my atheros 5212 card straight off? i need to test it out, seems to have borked in my normal edgy intall...
[01:40] <jscinoz> stefg, yes, but this happens even when i'm not doing anything 3d..
[01:40] <jonathan_> rpm,deb,tgz
[01:40] <jscinoz> stefg, and even then, an extra 10*C is huge..
[01:40] <TOR_CNR> guys, I keep getting prompts to insert the Fawn CD when I try to install updates
[01:40] <TOR_CNR> how do I just use the internet repos instead?
[01:40] <stefg> jonathan_: misconception, it doesn't work like that, and such distro doesn't exist
[01:40] <tchewy> try commenting the cd line on /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:40] <Plantain> How might I find out info about a package through apt-get?
[01:40] <moDumass> hey all, if i have an avi file with very quiet audio can i increase the audio with avidmux2?, if so How would i do this?
[01:41] <jscinoz> TOR_CNR, go administration > software sources and uncheck CD
[01:41] <ramla> jscinoz: the temp readout is cpu temp or..?
[01:41] <NET||abuse> oh crap.. how do i setup my wireless in default ubuntu edgy? I always just installed nm-applet :P heh...
[01:41] <jscinoz> ramla, CPU
[01:42] <stefg> jscinoz: and as you are a tinkerer (as you declared earlier) it might be that you tinkered in the wrong way.... acpi is rocket-science, and who knows what the nviia-driver does
[01:42] <TOR_CNR> yay
[01:42] <TOR_CNR> jscinoz: thanks :)
[01:42] <jscinoz> linux Wireless without NetworkManager makes me cry :(
[01:42] <jscinoz> TOR_CNR, no problem
[01:42] <jscinoz> stefg, ok thanks anyway :)
[01:42] <NET||abuse> jscinoz: hehe, me too.. any memory of how it's done without ?
[01:43] <omha> anybody heard any news about linspires CNR on ubuntu??
[01:43] <t94xr-lappy> who hasnt
[01:43] <jscinoz> NET||abuse, i remember it involved setting SSID, etc in terminal or text files >_<
[01:43] <DJ-_-> wel...
[01:43] <jscinoz> omha, what's the news?
[01:43] <DJ-_-> i did a cli install on a pc kept for server use...
[01:43] <omha> jscinoz, im asking you guys
[01:44] <jscinoz> :P
[01:44] <Plantain> What's the preload package do?
[01:44] <DJ-_-> now i need to do some installs like squid LAMP and RDP server installs on it....any ideas?

[01:44] <jscinoz> Has anyone had any success getting NVagp to work on nvidia drivers 97.55 or 100.14.09?
[01:44] <jscinoz> Smegzor, somewhere in /dev? >_<
[01:45] <Smegzor> I tried that.  It is not /dev/video0
[01:45] <jscinoz> video0 = graphics card
[01:45] <jscinoz> i think

[01:46] <DJ-_-> just finished installin a CLI system on a PC which is going to be the home server....now i need to do some installs like squid LAMP and RDP server installs on it....any ideas? i just got a CLI only for best performance....
[01:47] <NET||abuse> doesn't pick up any networks on sudo iwlist ath0 scan, even after setting to the channel of the wifi router with sudo iwconfig ath0 channel 9
[01:47] <MarLaw> DJ-_-: I used Ubuntu server which is perfect for that
[01:47] <MarLaw> and does LAMP installs
[01:47] <NET||abuse> this is from both the hd install and my edgy boot disk :(
[01:47] <MarLaw> otherwise just ubuntu
[01:47] <MarLaw> sorry
[01:47] <MarLaw> debian
[01:47] <DJ-_-> MarLaw: why not xubuntu cli?

[01:47] <neox> can anyone help me?
[01:47] <Myrtti> !anyone | neox
[01:47] <ubotu> neox: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[01:48] <MarLaw> DJ-_-:  I'm using 3 very old computers
[01:48] <MartyMcFly> how do I make a samba share in fstab writable by a system user instead of just root?
[01:48] <MarLaw> with ubuntu server
[01:48] <MarLaw> it comes CLI only
[01:48] <MarLaw> and has LAMP configs
[01:48] <neox> i got problem in playing 3gp files
[01:48] <MarLaw> so why bother with xubutu
[01:48] <DJ-_-> MarLaw: well i will download the images then
[01:48] <Myrtti> neox: could you please elaborate a bit
[01:48] <MarLaw> DJ-_-: Check it out before downloading it
[01:48] <neox> i`m also get problem in network my ubuntu to windows
[01:48] <NET||abuse> neox: have you tried the faq's for ubuntu? there are a lot of pages to do with media playback setup
[01:49] <neox> can anyone help me
[01:49] <DJ-_-> MarLaw: but i pretty sure xubuntu can do it too
[01:49] <neox> net i dont get what u mean
[01:50] <NET||abuse> neox: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/music.html
[01:50] <jscinoz> alright, i think i fixed NvAGP, time to reboot and see the magic :)
[01:50] <MarLaw> DJ-_-:  Any debian based distro can do the job,but one is more appropriate then an other
[01:50] <NET||abuse> neox: sorry, i presumed edgy for some reason there.. are you on 7.04 (feisty) or 6.10 (edgy)
[01:50] <DJ-_-> MarLaw: ok i will give that a try rite nw...thx....but i hope u cn help me when i am done
[01:51] <MarLaw> well all I know is that to install a lamp server cli only ubuntu server does that during installation
[01:51] <jscinoz> >_< i dont have a reboot or shutdown option listed on the shutdown menu rofl
[01:51] <DJ-_-> MarLaw; so do you know of anyway i can install a LTSP on other machines to connect to this one for processing...like the smart and dumb terminal
[01:51] <jscinoz> ubuntu says "NO ONE TURNS ME OFF"
[01:52] <Tom|AT|Windows> jscinoz, haha
[01:52] <Smegzor> I installed tvtime and stuffed it up.  Removing it and deleting its settings files doesn't make Ubuntu forget its settings.  It must be storing them somewhere else, but how do I find them?
[01:52] <Tom|AT|Windows> type poweroff in the console for shutdown ;)
[01:52] <MarLaw> DJ-_-: Nope...
[01:52] <jscinoz> yeah i know, just funny that its missing from the menu
[01:52] <zipper> This is mighty wierd. I have 2 soundcards, HDA-Intel and audigy4. At first, my HDA-Intel was set as default, but after a few reboots (not sure what caused it), audigy4 was set as default. But after installing linux-kernel-image-generic, i'm back to using HDA-intel as default.... how do i switch back to audigy?
[01:52] <DJ-_-> umm..
[01:52] <DJ-_-> well i need to find a pro ubuntu den lol
[01:52] <Myrtti> Smegzor: check if you've got .tvtime or such in your home dir

[02:00] <r4663r> does anybody use freeotfe for mounting dmcrypt luks partitions in ms-windows? when i try to mount a partition theres an error that i didnt put the correct password, but im sure it is correct..
[02:00] <stefg> !windows
[02:00] <ubotu> For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[02:01] <JediMaster> stefg: the first one, do you actually need the alternate cd, as I'm not getting the MD options on the normal server cd, getting an error that there's no / root mount point
[02:01] <JediMaster> stefg: not to worry, different menu layout
[02:01] <stefg> JediMaster: the server--cd uses the alternate installer (no gui anyway to be used as Live-CD)

[02:09] <stelki> I seem to be getting a black screen whatever I try to boot with :|
[02:10] <vermoos> anyone know how to run texhash correctly?
[02:10] <vermoos> i'm trying to get tex to recognize a package installed from an ubuntu repository
[02:12] <craigbass1976> http://rafb.net/p/NC5z9R48.html is my hard drive layout (for hdb) and my grub conf file.  I can't get windows to boot.  Can anyone see why?
[02:13] <nullkuhl> should i install it ?
[02:13] <craigbass1976> I only installed windows to test something out, so if I can't get it running, I can just swap the drive cable around and boot that way.
[02:13] <nullkuhl> i mean when i did before it removed lotsa stuff
[02:13] <nullkuhl> let me try erUSUL:..
[02:13] <nullkuhl> erUSUL: yes already installed build essential
[02:13] <nullkuhl> wat to do now
[02:14] <stefg> craigbass1976: win needs a primary partition, doesn't like to be in an extended one (and lvm'd)
[02:14] <stelki> oh and it should probably be 0,3
[02:14] <stelki> er, ,4
[02:15] <k31th> guys my xp wont boot after a upgrade of ubuntu, it removed XP from my boot list
[02:15] <nullkuhl> lol i found splashy in synaptic,, will install it from there , erUSUL
[02:15] <stefg> !grub | k31th
[02:15] <ubotu> k31th: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[02:15] <k31th> I have added it again manually... however it is not booting
[02:15] <craigbass1976> stefg, I can boot windows if I make the slave into the master.  I also jsut realized that the ntfs is on partition 4, and I have grub pointing to 2.
[02:15] <erUSUL> nullkuhl: i think that the problem is in the tar.gz it uses static tolink shared libs and it fails
[02:16] <craigbass1976> stefg, no, I think you were right with 3
[02:16] <vermoos> does anyone know how to hash the Tex Directory Structure after installing a latex package?
[02:17] <craigbass1976> Does anyone know of something like tortoisesvn for linux?  I need a subversion client, and then I won't have to dick with windows at all.
[02:17] <vermoos> setting $TEXMFDBS to a sane location doesn't seem to work
[02:17] <stefg> ok... enough of the 'my windows does not boot' -stuff now
[02:18] <Malfist> craugbass1976, You can use SVN from the command line
[02:18] <vermoos> craigbass1976 svn is in the ubuntu package manager
[02:18] <neox> help
[02:18] <mariusz> irc.freenode.net
[02:18] <Malfist> Is there a way to monitor what processes are using what of my bandwidth?
[02:18] <neox> on networking
[02:18] <neox> plx
[02:19] <craigbass1976> Malfist, Remotely thgouh?  I need to make sure someone can access it remotely.  I really don't want to boot to windows, becuase I have other stuff I need to do today, and can't if my big box is running XP.
[02:19] <Malfist> craigbass1976, yes. I believe there is a wiki page on it at the ubuntu website
[02:20] <craigbass1976> Malfist, but where this server is going, the guy want's to use tortoise, so I thought if I could find some kind of GUI client for ubuntu and see if that works, I could just test for a minute in windows
[02:20] <Carna_Feisty> Hi, I have a question about ubuntu server edition
[02:21] <stefg> !ask
[02:21] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:21] <Malfist> craigbass1976, I don't understand you, are you setting up an SVN server or connecting to one? You can do both in ubuntu
[02:21] <asparagus> i cant seem to get azureus to start up on 7.04
[02:21] <Frogzoo> is there a howto for setting up selinux ??
[02:21] <Carna_Feisty> does server edition support wireless as ubuntu "normal" edition?
[02:21] <Frogzoo> asparagus: start it up from a terminal for error msgs
[02:21] <Frogzoo> Carna_Feisty: same same
[02:22] <stefg> asparagus: the package in universe is broken.. get the sourceforge(t) - download and replace the azureus.jar (and delete your ~/.azureus dir
[02:22] <Carna_Feisty> I can't get the same usb wifi key work on it, don't know why, it works out of the box usually
[02:22] <Ve0> !ask
[02:22] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:22] <Malfist> Is there a program I can use to monitor what programs are using my bandwidth and how much?
[02:22] <Ve0> !test
[02:22] <ubotu> failed
[02:23] <asparagus> stefg, where do i place azureus.jar
[02:23] <heroin> anyone know if i can make a custom ubuntu CD? like with my own prefrences and stuff?
[02:23] <stefg> asparagus: locate azureus.jar
[02:23] <Carna_Feisty> malfist:i use conky
[02:23] <Frogzoo> Malfist: iptop maybe?
[02:23] <Malfist> conky can do that?
[02:24] <stefg> asparagus: type that command in terminal
[02:24] <Frogzoo> Malfist: soz, iftop - it's pretty primitive
[02:24] <Pie> What's the terminal command that allows you to edit xorg.conf . I don't mean the reconfigure command, I mean editting the actual file
[02:24] <heroin> Pie nano vi kwrite kate pick one :)
[02:24] <craigbass1976> Malfist, I've set one up.  I will need to test it with tortoise on a windows box.  I was looking for a gui client for ubuntu (rapidsvn is what I just found while you were replying) to just test remote authentication and so forth; this way, I won't tie up my big box all day by having it run windows.  I have an nfs share on that box and need ubuntu running to work on other stuff.  Anyway, if I can get rapidsvn running well
[02:24] <craigbass1976> , I'll then give tortoise a brief go.  Last time I used it, there was some authentication problem that I imagine will happen with rapidsvn too.
[02:24] <Malfist> Frogzoo, as long as I can use it
[02:24] <Carna_Feisty> conky is like a monitor, most people use it for eyecandy, you have to set it but you can just follow a topic on the forum
[02:24] <stefg> Pie: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:24] <Carna_Feisty> search the web for screenshots
[02:24] <Pie> okay, thanks both of you
[02:25] <Malfist> craigbass1976 Ubuntu can do that from the command line, I've never used a GUI from it, if your ubuntu machine can connect to it, so can windows
[02:25] <asparagus> stefg, it cant find it oddly enough
[02:26] <stefg> asparagus: sudo updatedb && sudo locate azureus.jar
[02:28] <heroin> anyone know if its possible to create my own setup disc? becuase i want a ubuntu 7.04server install w. fluxbox firefox vlc and some other things
[02:28] <slippyr4> Hi all. many icons are missing from my menus. for example, there is no synaptic. If i start alacarte menu editor, then it shows synaptic under system / administration. the menu item is ticked. why wouldn't it appear?
[02:28] <Tof> hi
[02:28] <Tom|AT|Windows> slippyr4 -- running as root? Or a user?
[02:29] <Malfist> Frogoo, iftop looks like what I want but all the processes are named jerome-desktop.local
[02:29] <slippyr4> tom|at|windows i am a normal user
[02:29] <Malfist> frogoo, can i get it to show like Firefox, rhythmbox, deluge, etc?
[02:29] <Tom|AT|Windows> Have you tried rebooting?
[02:29] <Tom|AT|Windows> I know running as root make them disappear
[02:29] <asparagus> stefg, nothing, maybe it's azureus[ver] .jar
[02:29] <Carna_Feisty> another question:I installed ubuntu server edition on an old computer in order to install then fluxbox on it.Once installed the OS, do I have only to install via apt-get fluxbox and its dependencies?
[02:30] <Stormx2> Carna_Feisty: Yeah.
[02:30] <heroin> Carna_Feisty: huh?
[02:30] <Stormx2> Carna_Feisty: I think so.
[02:30] <Carna_Feisty> nice
[02:30] <slippyr4> tom|at|windows yes i've rebooted. in fact there are about 20 things in alacarte but only 5 on the actual menu
[02:30] <Tof> I have a question about Ubuntu 7.04 desktop vs server. I need all client application (browser, mail, ssh), *and* server ones (apache, mysql, sshd). Which distribution do I need ?
[02:30] <heroin> Carna_Feisty: just do the server install and apt-get install xserver-xorg fluxbox <-- that should do the trick
[02:30] <Carna_Feisty> once connected to the net, world will be mine
[02:30] <Tom|AT|Windows> Yeh, i had that problem running as root, but beause you're a user i dont have a clue, someone else should know
[02:30] <orbin> Malfist: just type "fro", then press tab to get the nick right ;)
[02:31] <heroin> Carna_Feisty: but u probally want firefox vlc xmms and a fileexplorer like rox konqeuror or nautilus aswell ;)
[02:31] <Stormx2> Tof: Desktop.
[02:31] <Carna_Feisty> yeah right
[02:31] <Stormx2> Tof: You can install apache, php, mysql etc in one foul swoop.
[02:31] <Carna_Feisty> I know i will have to install a lot of appz but I hope to get done easily
[02:32] <Tof> Stormx2: via the standard Ubuntu install/update program ?
[02:32] <Stormx2> Tof: That's correct.
[02:32] <Stormx2> Tof: Server edition is only really meant for those who want to install and leave the box on without a screen attached.
[02:32] <Tof> Stormx2: Fine then. What is the difference between the Desktop and Server edition then ? only the default packages to install ?
[02:32] <Pie> How so I save the file after editting with nano?
[02:33] <Stormx2> Tof: Yeah, it's just the packages installed.
[02:33] <Tof> Stormx2: ok. Thanks a lot for the info. c ya
[02:33] <Stormx2> Tof: have fun!
[02:33] <heroin> Tof: yes server comes as a barebone with no packages installed exept basic onces like nano and stuff.. nothing graphical or anything like that
[02:33] <IdleOne> Pie, ctrl+x to close the file it will ask if you want to save
[02:33] <Tof> heroin: ok, thx
[02:33] <stefg> asparagus: it's Azureus2.jar (stupid capital A)
[02:34] <heroin> Tof: server install is used for.. SERVERS (duh) and older machines and people who dont like bloathiness
[02:34] <Pie> K, thanks IdleOne
[02:34] <AsgardBeast> Has anyone else had a problem with the audio after updating to the 2.6.20-16 kernel?
[02:34] <Carna_Feisty> No way, it doesn't recognize the wireless usb key, access point invalid and all parameters = 0
[02:34] <Carna_Feisty> My brother uses this key on feisty fawn, I can't believe it. lol
[02:34] <Tof> heroin: I see. In my case this is both a development and server machine
[02:35] <heroin> Tof: development? so u want a desktop and stuff?
[02:35] <Smegzor> I have a USB tvtuner (Pinnacle PCTV).  I get video and no sound using tvtime.  I've been told elsewhere I need the alsa usb module.  I'm running ubuntu fiesty (32bit).  Do I need to install that module?  How?
[02:35] <Tom|AT|Windows> Tof: you can install normal ubuntu, and install apache and those services after through synaptic package manager
[02:36] <Tof> heroin: right. I want all desktop environment (mail, browser, etc.), *and* servers (apache, mysql, php, sshd)
[02:36] <heroin> Tof: i think Tom|AT|Windows is showing the easiest way.. if u have disk space and a fairly good machine go for his option
[02:36] <Tom|AT|Windows> Thats exactly what im doing -- i need graphical for things like getting samba and stuff right, and for Mono development
[02:36] <Tom|AT|Windows> an also using apache and mod_mono for stuff
[02:37] <Tof> ok what is the "synapctic package manager" ? I still don't have installed ubuntu
[02:37] <heroin> Tom|AT|Windows: u need a gui for samba?
[02:37] <Tof> is it the standard Ubuntu installer ?
[02:37] <heroin> Tom|AT|Windows: synapctic package manager is a program in which u can select what u want installed
[02:37] <Tom|AT|Windows> heroin: no, but to install it i do, haven't quite mastered cli yet
[02:37] <heroin> Tom|AT|Windows: ah ok.. its easier then u think
[02:37] <Tom|AT|Windows> !synaptic package manager
[02:38] <Tom|AT|Windows> !synaptic
[02:38] <aa^way> Any other browsers in ubuntu? FirefoX = worst browser i ever seen
[02:38] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[02:38] <aa^way> maybe IE is supported in ubuntu?
[02:38] <Tom|AT|Windows> aa^way: no :P
[02:38] <aa^way> you just made me cry Tom :P
[02:38] <MarLaw> guys is it possible to use a hamachi host as a gateway including internet data like a sort of VPN ? or shall i just set up a socks proxy ?
[02:38] <Smegzor> hugs his firefox (and covers its ears)
[02:38] <heroin> Tof: well u can install packages(prgms) via synaptic(gui) or via apt-get(cli) and aptitude(cli)
[02:39] <napster_> hi
[02:39] <heroin> MarLaw: hamachi set ups a VPN..
[02:39] <orbin> aa^way: opera
[02:39] <Tom|AT|Windows> MarLaw: you could install it on your server, and then on anotehr computer install it, co nnect to the network and yes, you would have a vpn
[02:39] <Tof> heroin: ok, thx
[02:39] <Tom|AT|Windows> aa^way: does Opera have a linux version?
[02:39] <heroin> Tom|AT|Windows: .. ofcourse
[02:39] <Tom|AT|Windows> orbin: ^^
[02:39] <AsgardBeast> Yes Opera is available for Linux
[02:39] <MarLaw> yeah right heroin, but how can i make that my laptop uses the hamachi network the connect to the internet ?
[02:40] <DJ-_-> how do i get updated driver? i have intel chipset p4i645gv
[02:40] <MarLaw> this would be great for when i use public wireless access point
[02:40] <orbin> Tof: what are the system specs out of interest?
[02:40] <MarLaw> usingm y laptop, connect to the hamachi VPN and then use one of the home host for all the traffic
[02:40] <orbin> !opera > Tom|AT|Windows (read pm from ubotu)
[02:40] <heroin> MarLaw: just set up a proxy?
[02:41] <Tof> orbin: P4 dual core 1Go RAM
[02:41] <MarLaw> yeah that's what i was thinking but then i need to tell each application to use that proxy rigth ?
[02:41] <Tof> orbin: is that the information you requested ?
[02:41] <MarLaw> is there anything i can do to use something system level
[02:41] <aa^way> !opera > aa^way
[02:41] <Tom|AT|Windows> you would need the socks proxy for web browsers to use your hamachi tunnel i would believe
[02:41] <heroin> Tof: just install ubuntu and come back when ur done.. all what u would have to do is install ubuntu and in a terminal type sudo apt-get install apache2 mysql apache2-php5
[02:42] <heroin> MarLaw: urm i would not know..
[02:42] <orbin> Tof: yeah, gnome (ubuntu's default desktop environment) should fly.  just wondering as a lot of people use low-specced machines for servers.  sometimes gnome isn't the best option
[02:42] <MarLaw> i'm sure i can
[02:42] <MarLaw> maybe by using open vpn inside hamachi
[02:42] <MarLaw> or something like that
[02:43] <DJ-_-> my fonts have changed and the letters are somewhat not so clear....anyway to get back to default...i am on gnome
[02:43] <heroin> MarLaw: or just setup a real vpn :P
[02:43] <MarLaw> or openvpn alone
[02:43] <Tof> heroin: i'm *very* familiar to linux. what I want know, is a system where everything can be installed *very* simply.
[02:43] <MarLaw> yeah but i don't have public IP
[02:43] <Tof> orbin: i see
[02:43] <Tof> heroin: typo: replace know by now
[02:43] <heroin> Tof YES ubuntu is SIMPLE u can just CLICK and it will install apache and eveyrthing u would ever want
[02:43] <MarLaw> Tof: Ubuntu is the easiest
[02:44] <Tof> that is fine
[02:44] <IdleOne> Tof, everything in Ubuntu is just a couple clicks away and voila it is installed

[02:44] <heroin> MarLaw: urm.. let me find a book sec
[02:44] <orbin> Tof: well it uses apt ... nuff said
[02:45] <heroin> MarLaw: easiest way i read about would seem openVPN
[02:45] <heroin> MarLaw: for a proxy.. squid
[02:45] <IdleOne> mok0, www.irssi.org and read the faq or try #irssi maybe
[02:45] <sivaji> is it possible to open power point document in kubuntu
[02:45] <MarLaw> hope squid is not overkill
[02:45] <alaQ> mok0: simple... don't leave :)
[02:45] <Tof> I have 2 goals in fact: first try this distrib myself (as an IT), and then see if it could be used easily by a rookie
[02:46] <heroin> MarLaw: if ur dutch i suggest u get the CT magazine LINUX SPECIAL :)
[02:46] <Tom|AT|Windows> sivaji: use openoffice :)

[02:49] <aa^way> um
[02:49] <sivaji> alaQ when i open that .ppt file open office terminates
[02:49] <IdleOne> Bog`, what does your desktop loook like?
[02:49] <aa^way> !gnome
[02:49] <ubotu> gnome is a project that provides two things: The GNOME desktop environment, an intuitive and attractive desktop for end-users, users, and the GNOME development platform, an extensive framework for building applications that integrate into the rest of the desktop.
[02:49] <Bog`> it looks like a CLI
[02:49] <aa^way> ( i checked what gnome is ) ;p
[02:50] <alaQ> sivaji: i understand.  check out 'pptview' from apt.
[02:50] <IdleOne> Bog`, sudo aptitude install ubuntu-dektop
[02:50] <heroin> aa^way: what?
[02:50] <IdleOne> Bog`, sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[02:50] <ppd> hi. I'm trying to build kazehakase 0.4.7 with webcore but kazehakase keeps telling that webcore is not enabled although I gave the right command line option. does somebody probably have experience with building kazehakase on buntu?
[02:50] <Bog`> what if it's installed already?
[02:50] <heroin> aa^way: yes my sister did install ubuntu WITH amsn and i think firefox..
[02:50] <IdleOne> Bog`, is that what it says?
[02:50] <Tof> Is there a good graphical partitionning tool under ubuntu (that can work with NTFS partitions) ?
[02:50] <Bog`> i dunno

[02:51] <heroin> Tof: .. dude YES gparted qtparted and ofcourse.. uh.. someother tool i forgot about
[02:51] <jburd> As soon as I log into a GNOME session, I get an error message that says "Your session lasted less than 10 seconds..." and I'm prompted to look at the ~/.xsession-errors file.  My disk has ample space and I'm using the default fail safe GNOME session at the moment.  Here is the .xsession-errors file:    http://rafb.net/p/OU1Zst92.html  What's the problem?
[02:51] <Tof> heroin: ok, which one is best ?
[02:52] <heroin> Tof: idk sorta depends.. gparted has worked miracles in the past.. but i suggest u partition BEFORE installing ubuntu or use the ubuntu installer partitionor. Because once ubuntu is installed and u start partitioning GRUB is gonna go nuts
[02:53] <Tof> heroin: ok
[02:53] <Tof> heroin: do u have a dual boot with Windows or only Ubuntu on ur desktop ?
[02:54] <heroin> Tof: just try ubuntu w. the liveCD and 90% of ur question shgall be answered
[02:54] <heroin> Tof: only linux ofcourse :P but u can dual boot or triboot or hexboot if u wanted

[02:55] <Hayzeus> is there any major differences between kubuntu and ubuntu besides the gnome and kde sessions? i mean... i can do everything a kde machine can do on a gnome machine right?
[02:55] <heroin> Tof: yes under linux in general
[02:55] <heroin> Hayzeus: yes
[02:56] <alaQ> Hayzeus: kubuntu and ubuntu both base themselves on the same package set, so yes.
[02:56] <osio> has someone installed the new cs3 packet under ubuntu with wine?
[02:56] <Tof> heroin: u mean steam games can be installed under linux ?
[02:56] <heroin> Hayzeus: though Kbuntu uses diffrent apps then normal ubuntu

[02:57] <tritium> jmspeex: what are you talking about?
[02:57] <alaQ> osio: you might want to look up NVU as well as quanta.  both are very good editors.
[02:58] <heroin> Tof: http://linux-gamers.net
[02:58] <heroin> osio: NVU is pretty good i hear
[02:58] <Tof> heroin: u launch steam under wine ? i don't think steam is available natively for linux ?

[03:02] <Oggu> I got error that nvidia is version 1.0-7184 and that X is 1.0-9755, what to do?
[03:02] <Oggu> X wont start
[03:02] <alaQ> jburd: for some reason, gnome-session doesn't like to play with your memory - it's causing an invalid pointer error.  Why, I can't tell.  Sorry.  Can you run a different window manager, like xfce?
[03:03] <MTecknology> I've got two quick issues this morning... 1. I like the network manager, but it's not refreshing it's list of nearby access points.... I came to work with it turned on, waited about 5 minutes, and it was still only "seeing" my wireless from home. I had to manually choose my work AP... Problem 2. I installed qemu to run Windows. I got through the installation just fine, but then I did a shutdown on the virtual machine, tried to bo
[03:03] <MTecknology> ot it back up and it said Boot from Hard Disk 0 failed; FATAL: Not a bootabl disk... but I just installed to it. :S
[03:03] <asparagus> stefg, sorry how do i search for azureus[ver] ?
[03:04] <jburd> alaQ: Yeah.  I am using the default gnome session at the moment.
[03:04] <johnnybuoy> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2821642
[03:04] <johnnybuoy> hi all
[03:04] <jburd> I can also use xfce
[03:05] <alaQ> jburd: the reason I ask is because 'gnome-session,' the gnome startup command, is causing the error.  If you can get into another wm, you could do a package reinstall from synaptic or something.  That's the only possible solution I can think of.
[03:06] <SubOne> How do I uninstall a Window Decoration?
[03:07] <jburd> alaQ: A package re-install of what?
[03:07] <alaQ> SubOne: is it a beryl/compiz decoration, or a Gnome-based one?
[03:07] <asparagus> how do i locate azureus[ver] .jar in ubuntu?
[03:08] <alaQ> jburd: try reinstalling the gnome-session package, but I doubt it'll be just that one package.
[03:08] <jburd> alaQ: All right.  :)
[03:08] <jburd> brb.
[03:08] <SubOne> idk its just listed in the KDE System Settings>Appearance>Window Decorations
[03:09] <SubOne> alaQ: idk its just listed in the KDE System Settings>Appearance>Window Decorations
[03:11] <SubOne> The window decoration i want to uninstall first is called Crystal
[03:13] <alaQ> SubOne: did you install it using the apt packages?
[03:13] <SubOne> no it was preinstalled
[03:14] <not_a_k_> what's the new smb mounting tool we are supposed to use instead of smbfs?
[03:14] <not_a_k_> dur, nevermind first google hit
[03:14] <not_a_k_> cifs
[03:14] <alaQ> SubOne: I would first try 'sudo apt-get remove --purge -s kwin-style-crystal'.  the -s is in there to simulate removal, not actually do it. We don't want to break things hard, do we? :)
[03:15] <SubOne> ok lemme try that
[03:15] <Oggu> I installed nvidia legacy manually, how do i remove it?
[03:16] <heroin> Oggu: sudo apt-get remove --purge PACKAGE name will remove a package completly
[03:16] <SubOne> alaQ: it says it would uninstall kubuntu-default-settings too, that bad right?
[03:17] <theine> Hi, how would I go about preventing gnome-cups-icon to start automatically when I log into Gnome?
[03:17] <Oggu> is that the best solution that X doesnt start with error similar to: X is version 1.0-9755 nvidia is 1.0-7184
[03:17] <Oggu> In synaptic the package isnt installed
[03:19] <the_entropy> hi guys
[03:19] <alaQ> SubOne: it should be fine - that is just a meta-package.  I'm not positive though - you might just want to keep it on there to be safe.
[03:19] <SubOne> hi
[03:19] <the_entropy> i'm having some trouble with gdm, let me explain
[03:19] <whyameye> is there a difference between a session ID and a process ID?
[03:19] <the_entropy> i tried installing a newer version of GTK2 than the one that comes as a package
[03:20] <kdubois> if i want to find out which distro a remote machine is running, what command line utility should i use?
[03:20] <the_entropy> and since then the GDM will not run
[03:20] <jburd> alaQ: No go.  I reinstalled gnome-session.
[03:20] <SubOne> alaQ:  well the reason i want to uninstall it is because it takes like 10 seconds or so to load into the control panel when i choose it from the list. It can get annoying when mousewheeling through the list or accidentally clicking it you know.
[03:20] <the_entropy> it blocks up right before the login prompt
[03:20] <the_entropy> any ideas anyone?(on what i should check to see whats causing the trouble and possibly how to fix it)
[03:21] <alaQ> SubOne: understandable.  There might be a config file or symlink in the dot folders in your homedir.
[03:21] <jburd> I'm wondering why a default session using the same account starts fine but my profile session doesn't.
[03:21] <the_entropy> i would try and find it myself but the only browser i have is lynx(logged in with irssi from tty1)
[03:21] <orbin> kdubois: you could try 'cat /etc/issue' or 'lsb_release -a'
[03:21] <jburd> There has to be some kind of init script that is causing the problem.
[03:21] <wedontneed> Do u interested in economy statistics www.ecostatistics.com
[03:21] <SubOne> alaQ:  k let me check
[03:22] <Monteh> !restartx
[03:22] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[03:22] <heroin> the_entropy: oooh lynx.. man taht doesnt work anymore :P
[03:23] <Sakura> Suggestion: To restart X you press Ctrl-Backspace?
[03:23] <the_entropy> heroin: believe me if i had any choice i would use something else
[03:23] <heroin> the_entropy: just reinstall GDM? or use xdm?
[03:23] <Pici> Sakura: Thats not as 'clean' as doing the aformentioned method
[03:23] <heroin> the_entropy: or just login from a terminal and startx?
[03:23] <Sakura> Ok thank you :)
[03:23] <the_entropy> i removed gtk altogether(which removed 600mb's worth of packages) and reinstalled everything(including gdm) no luck
[03:24] <the_entropy> startx didn't work either but that was before i did that will try it now
[03:24] <Monteh> how can i refresh my applications menu to include newly installed crossover windows programs?
[03:24] <kane77> what is the keyring? (f-spot wants a password for keyring)
[03:25] <kane77> hmm and it crashed
[03:25] <the_entropy> heroin: startx crashes
[03:25] <SubOne> alaQ: what does --purge do?
[03:25] <the_entropy> heroin: checking the log now
[03:26] <lesokd> Hey, i have a "ATI Radeon 9800" graphic card. What driver shall i use and where can i find a good guide?
[03:26] <Sakura> kane77: A keyring is a file containing PGP/GnuPG certificated used for encryption
[03:26] <lesokd> for feisty?
[03:26] <alaQ> SubOne: it's the Synaptic equivalent of complete removal (takes care of configs and everything)
[03:27] <kane77> Sakura, hmm.. so how can I reset the password if I forgotten? (I realy dont remember setting up password for f-spot)
[03:27] <the_entropy> heroin: it keeps repeating the same error: "error opening /dev/wacom no such file or directory"
[03:27] <the_entropy> any ideas?
[03:27] <dagle> hi I have a problem with the network device on my Inspiron 6400, what driver should I use? Heres the hardware stuff: http://gentoo.pastebin.ca/558648
[03:28] <Sakura> kane77: If you forgot the password, you have to delete the keyfile and start a new one. There is no way to recover it. Would be a bad encryption don't you think so?
[03:28] <lesokd> Hey, i have a "ATI Radeon 9800" graphic card. What driver shall i use and where can i find a good guide for feisty?
[03:28] <kane77> Sakura, it asks password for the default, where can I find default?
[03:29] <heroin> the_entropy: urm i would not know iam not a gdm expert.. ask in #gnome
[03:29] <SubOne> I have another problem: Every once in a while my videos will freeze for a moment and then the video will skip and the audio will go really fast to catch up. I have to rewind the video a few seconds to view the part I miss. I don't see anything suspicious in the task manager. What can be causing this?
[03:29] <snowpunk> hi
[03:29] <the_entropy> heroin: ok, thanks... now... to figure out how to switch rooms in irssi
[03:30] <heroin> lesokd: i think feisty now comes w. propper drivers for ati cards.. and google for a good guide
[03:30] <heroin> the_entropy: esc+ 1 2 3 4.. or alt + 1 2 3 4 :)
[03:30] <SlimeyPete> the_entropy: hit esc + a number eg esc+1 for status window, and I have this room on esc+5.
[03:30] <heroin> the_entropy: where 1 2 or 3 is the window
[03:30] <the_entropy> heroin: nice, thanks :)
[03:30] <the_entropy> this is fun ^_^
[03:31] <heroin> the_entropy: irssi is the best
[03:31] <lesokd> u can't find which one to use
[03:31] <heroin> SubOne: which media player? bad dvd rip?
[03:32] <haf> I prefre wee_chat over irssi
[03:32] <haf> *prefer
[03:32] <SubOne> no they are mostly videos from online, its not the connection because it happens after they are finished downloading. The media player doesn't matter it happens in flash video playes and in mplayer.
[03:33] <Sakura> Wow pretty tough questions here...
[03:34] <the_entropy> heroin: maybe but an 80 char screen isn't :P
[03:34] <heroin> the_entropy: u get used to it :)
[03:34] <lesokd> anyone who knows which ATI driver is good for feisty?
[03:34] <heroin> lesokd: it comes with a propper driver u probally wont need to install a difrent driver as the default one
[03:35] <the_entropy> heroin: hehe, i don't plan on doing that now though, i like terminals but i also like firefox and some other such apps ;)
[03:35] <SlimeyPete> !fglrx
[03:35] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:35] <SlimeyPete> ^^ that one is, in theory, best
[03:35] <heroin> the_entropy: press ctrl+alt+3 and login and then when u enter startx what happens?
[03:35] <heroin> the_entropy: u could check logs in /var/log/ check syslog and stuff
[03:36] <lesokd> can Beryl run with fglrx???
[03:36] <SlimeyPete> lesokd: yes
[03:36] <lesokd> what about Compiz?
[03:36] <SlimeyPete> probably.
[03:36] <lesokd> where can i find a guide to installing fglrx?
[03:36] <heroin> the_entropy: and what happens when u enter firefox?
[03:36] <the_entropy> heroin: startx crashes
[03:36] <heroin> the_entropy: and what happens when u enter firefox?
[03:36] <the_entropy> umm well i don't think it'll start, lemme check
[03:36] <madpajero> is there any problem if i install koffice using gnome?
[03:37] <heroin> madpajero: no.. it will just requirelots and lots of libs
[03:37] <dagle> any one got any idea about what driver I should use for: http://gentoo.pastebin.ca/558648 ?
[03:37] <the_entropy> heroin: firefox complains about the fact that it "cannot open display" ;)
[03:37] <Sakura> Question: Can I somehow turn off the localization of that config file for /var/log?
[03:37] <Plantain> How do I get information about a package under ubuntu?
[03:37] <heroin> Plantain: use aptitude
[03:37] <lesokd> anyone who know where i can get a guide to install fglrx?
[03:37] <the_entropy> heroin: and btw, i know the ctrl+alt+F<tty number> how do you think i'm here?
[03:37] <bastid_raZor> just install kubuntu-desktop as well.. i have both, i have tons more applications that way
[03:38] <heroin> the_entropy: good point :P.. urm why did u change GTK libs anyway?
[03:38] <Plantain> heroin: If I'm logging in via SSH, is there an alternative?
[03:38] <bastid_raZor> Plantain: or packages.ubuntu.com
[03:38] <Frogzoo> Plantain: apt-cache show pkg
[03:38] <madpajero> heroin: cool, im just gonna do that. i am a bit crazy, im going to uninstall firefox2 and install firefox1.5 on it.
[03:38] <Plantain> Thanks :D
[03:38] <heroin> madpajero: thats crazy!!
[03:38] <the_entropy> heroin: i was trying to install something that require gtk 2.12 and the package from unbuntu was 2.10.3
[03:39] <heroin> the_entropy: nice
[03:39] <the_entropy> heroin: so i figured i would install from source like i always do when a package isn't available
[03:39] <Sakura> Firefox 1.5 is out of support isn't it
[03:39] <SubOne> How do I uninstall a Window Decoration that was installed via a make script?
[03:39] <heroin> the_entropy: apt-get remove gtk2.12?
[03:39] <the_entropy> heroin: apt-get doesn't even detect it >_>
[03:39] <Frogzoo> SubOne: make uninstall
[03:39] <madpajero> Heroin: im a fairly noob user of ubuntu but i have a strong urge to change some of the standard stuff
[03:39] <heroin> Sakura:  no its not
[03:39] <SubOne> Frogzoo: but I dont have the make file anymore
[03:39] <heroin> the_entropy: slap it?
[03:39] <Sakura> *phew* so he's not too crazy
[03:39] <the_entropy> heroin: i removed it with make uninstall
[03:40] <Frogzoo> SubOne: you can d/l the source again
[03:40] <heroin> the_entropy: so now install gtk2.10
[03:40] <SubOne> Frogzoo: no I can't because I wrote it
[03:40] <the_entropy> heroin: i hate how a lot of the packages are really old and out of date in ubuntu, like firefox for example, i have 2.0 and it still nags me about FF1.5 being available as an update all that time
[03:40] <SubOne> Frogzoo: based on another source
[03:40] <the_entropy> heroin: tried that, no luck
[03:40] <Sakura> Subone: You can't remember where the stuff is your own script installed?
[03:40] <madpajero> heroin: anyway thx for giving the confidence to install koffice
[03:41] <madpajero> heroin: ciao
[03:41] <heroin> the_entropy: O.o what the hell? if u want bleeding edge get 8.04?
[03:41] <heroin> madpajero: ciao
[03:41] <alaQ> heroin: 8.04?  do they even have anything available for that?
[03:41] <zipper> This is mighty wierd. I have 2 soundcards, HDA-Intel and audigy4. At first, my HDA-Intel was set as default, but after a few reboots (not sure what caused it), audigy4 was set as default. But after installing linux-kernel-image-generic, i'm back to using HDA-intel as default.... how do i switch back to audigy?
[03:41] <the_entropy> heroin: do you mean 7.0$?
[03:41] <the_entropy> wtf?
[03:41] <heroin> alaQ: huh just go to #ubuntu+1
[03:41] <the_entropy> heroin: 7.04*
[03:41] <ManaPirat> 7.04 has firefox 2, for sure
[03:41] <Sakura> alaQ that was irony. 8.04 isn't planned yet, better wait for 7.10 :)
[03:41] <ManaPirat> i think 6.10 had it too
[03:42] <heroin> the_entropy: no just get the next build of ubuntu the beta one
[03:42] <alaQ> heroin: that's 7.10 is in #ubuntu+1
[03:42] <bastid_raZor> ubuntu 7.04 has firefox pre-packaged
[03:42] <mc44> and its not in beta
[03:42] <ManaPirat> Sakura dont spread wrong information ;)
[03:42] <SubOne> Sakura: it was a script for window decoration you were meant to change a few images and names and then install
[03:42] <ManaPirat> oh sorry
[03:42] <ManaPirat> my fault
[03:42] <heroin> alaQ: ooh well then let the_entropy try that
[03:42] <eRazor> Hi all
[03:42] <ManaPirat> its 7.10 thats planned
[03:42] <ManaPirat> -.- ugh
[03:42] <alaQ> heroin: :)
[03:42] <the_entropy> heroin: the 7.04 liveCD will not boot on my PC, been trying to figure that one out as well :)
[03:42] <heroin> ManaPirat: untill its released its beta
[03:42] <eRazor> My friend has a problem with Synaptic
[03:42] <Sakura> ManaPirat: Yes that's what I said. 7.10
[03:42] <ManaPirat> then_en
[03:42] <tck> hello
[03:42] <heroin> the_entropy: dude.. ur computer is demonic
[03:42] <eRazor> He doesn't have an Internet connection
[03:43] <ManaPirat> the_entropy: tried the alternative install cd?
[03:43] <tck> having issues with ubuntu on inspiron 1300
[03:43] <eRazor> so I am asking behalf of him
[03:43] <SubOne> i guess i can search for the decoration name
[03:43] <alaQ> zipper: check under System > Preferences >Sound - you can configure it there.  That's what I do with my HDA_Intel and my Audigy2Notebook.
[03:43] <heroin> the_entropy: try dist-upgrade :P
[03:43] <eRazor> Can someone help me please
[03:43] <eRazor> I have a problem with Synaptic
[03:43] <bastid_raZor> eRazor: you've not asked a question
[03:43] <mc44> eRazor: ask your question..
[03:43] <zipper> alaQ: thanks, let me just try that out
[03:44] <the_entropy> ManaPirat: no, my internet connection is pretty limited here so i will have to wait till i'm in uni to download that
[03:44] <alaQ> eRazor: and that problem would be...?
[03:44] <eRazor> bastid_raZor: mc44: when we open Synaptic it gives the following error
[03:44] <Frogzoo> eRazor: don't leave us guessing what your problem is...
[03:44] <heroin> the_entropy: where do u live.. let me guees brazile?
[03:44] <eRazor> E:dpkg was interrupted. You must manually run  dpkg --configure -a
[03:45] <Sakura> SubOne: Please consider checking your private chat windows :)
[03:45] <Frogzoo> !enter | eRazor
[03:45] <the_entropy> heroin: lebanon, been on the news a lot lately so i guess you know where that is :)
[03:45] <ubotu> eRazor: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:45] <ManaPirat> sucks without net, beeing offline at home myself
[03:45] <mc44> eRazor: and did the try running "dpkg --configure -a"?
[03:45] <SubOne> Sakura: huh? i got no messages...
[03:45] <eRazor> mc44: yes
[03:45] <Frogzoo> eRazor: it means that someone stopped dpkg when it was running before, now do what it says
[03:45] <tck> having issues getting X to work on inspiron 1400
[03:45] <tck> *1300
[03:45] <Sakura> SubOne: In this case I have to file a bug report for XChat :)
[03:45] <eRazor> it opens the Google Earth License page and stops
[03:46] <mc44> tck: what graphics card?
[03:46] <SubOne> ok, im using gaim
[03:46] <eRazor> Frogzoo: We did that
[03:46] <mc44> eRazor: and waht did it say?
[03:46] <IdleOne> eRazor, did he accept the licence?
[03:46] <tck> mc44 intel based, 915GM
[03:46] <Frogzoo> eRazor: what are you trying to install?
[03:46] <Sakura> SubOne: Even GAIM should display private chat windows...
[03:46] <eRazor> IdleOne: There is no option to do it
[03:46] <SubOne> yeah i usually get them
[03:46] <Plantain> I've installed proftpd, but it doesn't work (I can't connect)
[03:46] <irclv> hello, how to start xserver from ubuntu command-promt?
[03:46] <eRazor> Frogzoo: I am not even able to open the synaptic
[03:47] <IdleOne> eRazor, usualy just hit enter it defaults to " acdept"
[03:47] <IdleOne> accept*
[03:47] <mc44> irclv: startx
[03:47] <irclv> thanks
[03:47] <Sakura> Subone: About your video problem I noted:  I had this problem on my old machine (AMD 1300, 512MB memory) but recompiling my kernel with the option "preemptive multitasking" fixed it.
[03:47] <eRazor> IdleOne: Ok will try just a moment
[03:47] <alaQ> Plantain: check /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf - there's some things that you might want to verify/check, and then run /etc/init.d/proftpd start to get the daemon running.
[03:47] <Plantain> alaQ: thanks
[03:47] <Sakura> irclv: startx
[03:48] <the_entropy> heroin: installing fluxbox now, lets see what happens with that
[03:48] <SubOne> Sakura: let me make a note of that... never compiled my own kernel
[03:48] <Plantain> How might I restart proftpd when I change the config?
[03:48] <Plantain> Nevermind
[03:48] <Sakura> SubOne: I know it's a tough one and takes quite some time: Another suggestion: DO NOT ABANDON YOUR OLD KERNEL! :)
[03:48] <heroin> the_entropy: I LOVE FLUXBOX
[03:48] <Plantain> I got it :D
[03:48] <Frogzoo> Plantain: sudo /etc/init.d/*proftpd restart
[03:48] <heroin> the_entropy: also install xdm
[03:49] <alaQ> Frogzoo: you're quick. :)
[03:49] <the_entropy> heroin: hehe, so do I but I still have to get gnome back in working order
[03:49] <SubOne> Sakura: of course... what about when a newer kernel comes out, i have to recompile again?
[03:49] <the_entropy> heroin: this is the home PC ^_^
[03:49] <heroin> the_entropy: iam going to a friends house.. i will leave IRC on.. but that wont be USEFULL.. at all
[03:49] <stelki> Anybody using ubuntu 64bit on a core 2 duo on an nforce chipset?
[03:49] <Frogzoo> I wish
[03:49] <Sakura> I'm sooo glad I have a nice custom built computer without that "Designed for Microsoft Windows" and "Ready for Windows Vista" logo :)
[03:50] <bastid_raZor> heh
[03:50] <Plantain> Where are the users who can login via FTP with proftpd stored?
[03:50] <the_entropy> heroin: hehe, sure, later and thanks for the help
[03:50] <Sakura> Subone: Yes, sadly you have to do that, but you can just copy the configuration. Much faster this way :)
[03:50] <SubOne> Sakura: suggest a step by step tutorial?
[03:51] <Sakura> Subone: I suggest trial and error that's what I did. If I can do it, everybody can.
[03:51] <eRazor> IdleOne: It doesn't accept anything
[03:51] <SubOne> Sakura: just afraid ill break something or set something up less optimized than it is current;y
[03:51] <eRazor> not even enter
[03:52] <Sakura> Subone: My suggestion is to find a boyfriend who is good with computers and have him fix it... that's not an option for you is it.
[03:52] <SubOne> Sakura: Considering I am a heterosexual male, probably not
[03:53] <Sakura> Subone: The kernel should install as an extra boot option, you should be able to still boot the old one
[03:53] <Sakura> Look for a girl who's good with computers.
[03:53] <IdleOne> eRazor, can you see the entire license? it should tell you ho to accept it...
[03:53] <SubOne> Sakura: I realize that
[03:54] <eRazor> IdleOne: Ya
[03:54] <PriceChild> !offtopic | Sakura SubOne
[03:54] <ubotu> Sakura SubOne: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:54] <eRazor> but it doesn't accept any key
[03:54] <Waakzamheid> hey all.
[03:54] <eRazor> we have to close that window
[03:54] <Sakura> Arigatou ubotu, PriceChild
[03:54] <Frogzoo> eRazor: scroll to the bottom where you can accept the licence
[03:54] <IdleOne> eRazor, his mouse works right? is the keyboard plugged in?
[03:54] <eRazor> tried that also but in vain
[03:54] <SubOne> PriceChild: I had a problem he suggested recompiling my kernel, how is that off topic?
[03:55] <eRazor> IdleOne: Yes
[03:55] <eRazor> IdleOne: indeed, all the otherprograms work properly
[03:55] <IdleOne> eRazor, sudo apt-get remove --purge package and then try re-installing
[03:55] <eRazor> IdleOne: which package?
[03:56] <IdleOne> the google-earth package
[03:56] <Plantain> My ProFTPd Server doesn't seem to accept connections, what could I have missed? (I installed via apt-get, added anonymous user and started)
[03:56] <zipper> alaQ: I can only find settings for changing between ALSA, OSS and so on... and then ofcourse which MIDI devide i want to use. Nothing about default soundcard anywhere
[03:56] <zipper> alaQ: using kubuntu btw
[03:56] <eRazor> IdleOne: Will try and comeback
[03:57] <alaQ> zipper: ah.  Kubuntu.  Lemme look for some other way around.  I configured mine through esd.
[03:57] <Waakzamheid> hey all, i'm stumped on a problem, anyone want to give it a go?
[03:57] <eRazor> IdleOne: should the command be "sudo apt-get remove --purge google-earth"?
[03:57] <sybariten|Zzz> hum, nan som kan rekommendera nat godtyckligt apt-paket som ar valdig oberoende av annat, och ganska litet, bara for att testinstallera?
[03:57] <IdleOne> eRazor, where did you get that package?
[03:57] <sybariten|Zzz> vad som helst alltsa
[03:57] <zipper> alaQ: i dont have any experience with esd.... i've tried looking in both the "normal" settings menu, and also in kcontrol... nothing
[03:57] <sybariten|Zzz> uh sorry
[03:58] <eRazor> IdleOne: I have no idea, have to ask him
[03:58] <alaQ> zipper: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_change_default_soundcard
[03:58] <kairu0> how can i disable ipv6 without restarting?
[03:58] <zipper> alaQ: ah sweet, thanks
[03:58] <Waakzamheid> pick a browser, any browser, and i can get anywhere.  i can ping everything.  gmail doesn't work.  some other miscellaneous sites don't work.  is that ipv6 or what?
[03:58] <alaQ> no problem.
[03:58] <eRazor> IdleOne: I will ask him and comeback. Because whatever you tell  me should be communicated to him through phone
[03:58] <eRazor> IdleOne: So its taking a lot of time
[03:58] <IdleOne> eRazor, it isnt in the repos unless he installed from cafuego's repos
[03:59] <eRazor> IdleOne: I don't think he has installed from the repos
[03:59] <Sakura> kairu0: I'm pretty unsure but, have you tried init1 and init 5?
[03:59] <eRazor> since he has no internet connection
[03:59] <zipper> alaQ: so easy, and so effective... it works now :)
[03:59] <eRazor> IdleOne: I think he has got the deb package from somewhere else
[03:59] <kairu0> Sakura, thanks .. its just its a server and i cant afford to drop services :/
[03:59] <eRazor> if at all it exists
[03:59] <Monteh> anyone know where i can get latest drivers for the sony eyetoy?
[04:00] <Sakura> kairu0: It WILL ...
[04:00] <zipper> kairu0: why would you want to disable IPv6?
[04:00] <Hayzeus> IPv6 is the devil!
[04:00] <kairu0> zipper, i think its causing a slew of bind9 errors
[04:00] <Sakura> kairu0:; Init1 will initiate the single user mode and drop all network services
[04:00] <zipper> kairu0: hmm, okay. It shouldn't, but i have little experience with ipv6.
[04:01] <zipper> Hayzeus: why would you say that? You think Ipv4 is better?
[04:01] <Hayzeus> for the time being
[04:01] <IdleOne> ummm forget the command to uninstall a .deb
[04:01] <kairu0> zipper, any idea what else would cause a lot of FORMERR errors in my syslog?
[04:01] <Gekitsuu> Is there a way to do a reinstall on a live system via apt?
[04:01] <zipper> kairu0: i'm sorry, i have no idea
[04:01] <kairu0> ok
[04:02] <zipper> Hayzeus: i disagree.... why do you prefer v4 "for the time being"?
[04:02] <eRazor> IdleOne: then what to do
[04:02] <eRazor> ?>
[04:02] <zipper> if it was up to me, i would lay down a veto upon the internet, forcing EVERYONE to switch to v6
[04:02] <Sakura> IPv6 is added functionality it shouldn't affect v4 would it?
[04:02] <zipper> too bad i'm not supreme ruler of the world... yet
[04:02] <zipper> Sakura: nope
[04:02] <bkudria> is php5(-cgi) in feisty compiled with fastcgi support?
[04:03] <not_a_k_> i'm trying to use sshfs, but my isp seems to cause the ssh connections to die after 10 or so idle minutes. anyway i can workaround this?
[04:03] <zipper> Sakura: it is possible for v6 to co-exist with v4... even if the entire network isnt running v6
[04:03] <Hayzeus> well it is quite hard to manually configure a network using V6 and a couple of firewalls we use dont know how to handle v6 so we had to upgrade them.... a big pain in the ass for something not needed yet...
[04:03] <Gekitsuu> that's not exactly true, IPV 6 being added can affect apps that are setup to default to IPV 6
[04:03] <Sakura> not_a_k you problably have a "Netgear" router?
[04:04] <zipper> Gekitsuu: ah yeah, ofcourse.... always with the apps :)
[04:04] <zipper> sorry, only thinking routing-wise here
[04:04] <not_a_k_> Sakura: it's a dlink actually
[04:04] <Gekitsuu> well routers are smarter than apps for sure
[04:04] <IdleOne> eRazor, what command did he use to install the package?
[04:04] <Sakura> Ok never mind :)
[04:04] <bkudria> is php5(-cgi) in feisty compiled with fastcgi support?
[04:04] <zipper> Gekitsuu: well hopefully
[04:06] <zipper> Hayzeus: i get your point.... but the sooner we start using v6, the sooner applications will support it
[04:06] <alaQ> I would like a push of IPv6, solely because I hate NAT tables. :)

[04:06] <padee> hi there. is someone terribly into ssh? i would like to know, if its possible to display a terminal on a remote computer...
[04:06] <Hayzeus> zipper: they just need to mandate it and force it or else just make it all compatible
[04:06] <not_a_k_> Sakura: well it could be a rebranded device that netgear also uses... what would you have suggested if i did have one? switch routers?
[04:06] <Gekitsuu> Is there a way to do a reinstall on a live system via apt? something along the lines of apt-get force ubuntu-desktop
[04:07] <zipper> padee: so you want to login on a remote machine, or you want to open up a new window in X on the remote machine?
[04:07] <zipper> Hayzeus: which is exactly why i should be supreme ruler of the world... i would make it happend :)
[04:07] <zipper> it's already somewhat compatible
[04:08] <nullkuhl> guys plz helpi have just installed splashy and when i try to exec this in terminal : splashy test or splashy boot i get this error  Splashy ERROR: Couldn't splashy_start_splashy(). Error -2  HELPPP
[04:08] <Sakura> not_a_k_ I have problems with Netgear routers dropping connections after 10 minutes and solved it by using a timed ping to my server in a cronjob
[04:09] <Sakura> These routers also have limited space in their routing tables, daily resets are recommended not_a_k_
[04:09] <raymondjtoth> hi frank and xi
[04:10] <alaQ> nullkuhl: do you have framebuffer enabled in the terminals?
[04:10] <nullkuhl> how to do that ?
[04:10] <zipper> Sakura: sounds like great routers.
[04:10] <nullkuhl> how to enable frame buffer ?
[04:10] <nullkuhl> alaQ:  ?
[04:10] <F1N1TY> Hey guys, I just downloaded ubuntu, and I installed X-Chat
[04:10] <F1N1TY> anyone know how to enable the view of the userlist?
[04:10] <F1N1TY> I can't see who all's on :)
[04:11] <alaQ> nullkuhl: one second - going to look how to do it in ubuntu.
[04:11] <Sakura> zipper: I wondered why Cisco's are so expensive. You slowly learn that
[04:11] <Shankysv87> question: why is it that if i leave my computer logged in and walk away, sometimes when i come back, it has logged back out, is there a way to change that so that it says logged in until i manually log it out?
[04:12] <zipper> Sakura: =D
[04:12] <F1N1TY> Shankysv87: in XP it's in the power settings
[04:12] <Shankysv87> but i'm running ubuntu
[04:12] <Sakura> Shankysv87: Is it logging you off or rebooting? Reboot might happen if the computer gets overheated or bored of the user :)
[04:12] <alaQ> nullkuhl: you'll have to edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst file
[04:12] <Memories> hello every
[04:12] <Shankysv87> logging off
[04:13] <Shankysv87> if it reboots, since ubuntu is not installed on my master drive it will go into another os
[04:13] <nullkuhl> alaQ: then??
[04:13] <Memories> 1
[04:13] <Memories> i'm facing a prob with evolution mail
[04:13] <Memories> using hotmail
[04:13] <Memories> i followed the ubuntu geek forum guide!
[04:13] <Memories> though whenever i try to connect i get this error :Error sending password: -ERR Unable to find folder inbox on remote server
[04:13] <Memories> what may be the cause of tht!
[04:13] <IdleOne> !enter | Memories
[04:13] <ubotu> Memories: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:13] <nullkuhl> al
[04:13] <nullkuhl> alaQ: hello ??
[04:13] <alaQ> nullkuhl: look for the line # kopt = <random string> ro
[04:13] <Memories> ok sorry about tht
[04:14] <Sakura> Shankysv87 I have a fresh Ubuntu 7.4 install here and it's not logging me off... have you checked System -> Administration -> Login window?
[04:14] <nullkuhl> # kopt=root=UUID=06cb1ee8-895d-4673-8008-e9c0a7e28c38 ro
[04:14] <Memories> facing a prob with evolution mail, while using it to connect to hotmail.. i followed the ubuntugeek forum guide though whenever i try to connect i get this error :Error sending password: -ERR Unable to find folder inbox on remote server
[04:14] <alaQ> nullkuhl: at the end of that line, add 'vga=791 splash quiet'.
[04:14] <nullkuhl> alaQ: now what ? shall uncomment it too ?
[04:15] <alaQ> leave the pound there - it's not a commented line, even though it looks like it.
[04:15] <nullkuhl> alaQ: ok now ?
[04:15] <Sakura> Memories: That sounds like a server error. Considering it's hotmail... how often did you try?
[04:15] <alaQ> save and exit, then run update-grub
[04:16] <Monteh> anyone know a program to test if my webcam is setup in linux?
[04:16] <raymondjtoth> how i use time sync
[04:16] <Sakura> I mean: Hotmail is running on Windows...
[04:16] <Memories> sakura, 3 tims and i stopped so it wouldnt b locked
[04:16] <raymondjtoth> do i just check the box i want and then close box
[04:16] <alaQ> nullkuhl: it'll also probably take a restart as well.
[04:16] <Shankysv87> Sakura: i have the same as you but i cannot find anything that says about log on time limits that is checked
[04:16] <nullkuhl> alaQ: when i do that thefile i just edited go back to default
[04:16] <Sakura> Memories: You can try 3 times, then log on once using the web... >.<
[04:16] <nullkuhl> and all changes i made is canceled
[04:16] <nullkuhl> but let me try though
[04:16] <Memories> sakura, thts wht i did so it wouldnt b locked !
[04:17] <keck0f> can i mount/offer a "shared Disk" on two ubuntu-Servers? Is DRBD (Distributed Replicated Block Device) supported?
[04:17] <richard_> I downloaded ubuntu and every time I try to download something like yahoo messenger it has a error, is there someplace with simple instructions for downloading programs
[04:17] <Memories> Sakura, though am wondering how should i fix tht issue!
[04:17] <Sakura> Shankysv87 I just remembered there is some "timed logon setting" in that... sorry if it's of no use
[04:18] <padee> zipper: i want to login on a remote machine... i can do that... and i want on the remote machine to open a terminal
[04:18] <Shankysv87> its not checked..
[04:18] <keck0f> richard_: "man wget" or you can google for "prozilla".
[04:18] <Sakura> Memories, have you tried to use telnet to log on to hotmail? It's pop3 isn't it?
[04:18] <zipper> richard_: downloading applications in ubuntu is really easy. Use the "add/remove programs" in the menu (synaptics/adept).... or use the console-based "apt"
[04:18] <Memories> sakura, am not a premium account holder over hotmail would tht affect this ?
[04:19] <Sakura> memories: what's a "premium hotmail user?"
[04:19] <zipper> padee: still not entirely sure what you wanna do. You want a new terminal window to pop up on the remote machine?
[04:19] <Sakura> memories: pm please :)
[04:19] <Memories> Sakura, a premium hotmail is allowed to use microsoft outlook to connect to hotmail among other features
[04:19] <Pici> raymondjtoth: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime
[04:19] <raymondjtoth> pic i have it in but will not alow me to syinc it
[04:20] <richard_> thank you will try again just really not computer literate I guess
[04:20] <padee> zipper: yes. exactly. if i type 'gnome-terminal' it sais> cannot open display
[04:20] <F1N1TY> Shankysv87: it's in the power options in Ubuntu
[04:20] <F1N1TY> System->Preferences->Power Management
[04:20] <Shankysv87> thank you.. looking now
[04:20] <zipper> padee: ah okay. Well, i only know of a very ugly and very unsecure way of doing that, so you'd probably be better off waiting for someone else to help you. Sorry.
[04:21] <CheshireViking_> Memories, how old is your hotmail account, old ones that aren't premium accounts can still use the pop3 facility, but anything recent can't (maybe 5-7 years is recent)
[04:21] <Sakura> Memories: Outlook is not an Ubuntu certified application :))
[04:21] <F1N1TY> Shankysv87: hope it works for yah
[04:21] <Memories> cheshireviking_ since 2000 or 1999 or so
[04:21] <Shankysv87> it was set to 40 minutes, i will see when i return.. thanks for th help
[04:21] <whyameye> padee: how are you logging into the remote machine/
[04:21] <Memories> sakura, which is why am asking about evolution mail! am simply explaining wht a premium hotmail account may have as a feature concerning my current problem
[04:22] <Sakura> Memories: Please PM (personal message which I have sent you)
[04:22] <padee> whyameye: ssh myloginname@ipaddressoftheremotecomputer
[04:22] <CheshireViking_> Memories, not sure when exactly they made the change, I know mine works but its 10+ years old
[04:22] <whyameye> padee: are you using the -X option?
[04:22] <Memories> cheshireviking_ ya i know! i got my other one working fine over xp! though i ditched xp a while back
[04:22] <padee> whyameye: x-option?
[04:22] <Memories> sakura, i allready did! your not answering
[04:22] <padee> whyameye: no
[04:22] <Sakura> I have to file a bug report for XChat then
[04:23] <whyameye> padee: try ssh -X loginname@remote_machine
[04:23] <nullkuhl> alaQ: hEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP
[04:23] <whyameye> padee: not -x but -X
[04:23] <arturs> hello all, can You tell me how can I to not use "chkconfig"?
[04:23] <arturs> in this command: CHKCONFIG=$(shell sh -c 'type -p chkconfig' 2> /dev/null)
[04:23] <zipper> arturs: well, you simply have to force yourself to not type in "chkconfig"? :)
[04:24] <arturs> zipper: :)
[04:24] <Sakura> Memories: Sorry I was trying to direct you how to use telnet to connect to hotmail pop3 if possible because this way you can read all error messages clear text
[04:24] <ToddEDM2> good morning everyone... i recently installed ubuntu.. and im havein problems with it freezing, for about 15 seconds at a time..... is this a known issue?
[04:24] <alaQ> nullkuhl: what's the issue?
[04:24] <nullkuhl> alaQ: now after i restarted it worked but there was no progress bar inthe splash but we can postpone that for now cause i have another problem , once it booted and am in ubuntu there was this dashes on the screen blinking looks like console dashes but when i press ctrl alt f5 and then with f7 (switchin between displays) it fixed but will it do this every time i boot ?
[04:24] <Memories> Sakura, dont b sorry! though i think am ignored over ur irc client!
[04:24] <savetheWorld> ToddEDM2: get your foot off the power cord, your making the electrons stop.
[04:24] <savetheWorld> *you're
[04:24] <ToddEDM2> lol
[04:24] <Memories> sakura, been talking to you for the past 2 min in prvt though ur not answering
[04:25] <ToddEDM2> damn, thats all it was ;)
[04:25] <padee> whyameye: ey, thats great. but it opens a new terminal on my local computer, and not on the remote computer
[04:25] <Sakura> Memories: You're right I'm wrong. Although I have an out-of.the-box XChat here
[04:25] <arturs> zipper: is it secure?
[04:25] <alaQ> nullkuhl: what type of graphics card do you have?
[04:25] <savetheWorld> Memories: did you try a breath mint? :-)
[04:25] <raymondjtoth> it dont work
[04:25] <nullkuhl> ati
[04:25] <Sakura> ToddEM2: No freezes here. You're not using 486 DX-2/66?
[04:25] <whyameye> padee: can you restate exactly what you want to do?
[04:25] <arturs> I mean, i cannot make file without these commands
[04:25] <savetheWorld> sorry - whole world seems to be a straight line this morning...
[04:25] <Memories> savetheworld, the day i'll meet you ill make sure not to
[04:25] <nullkuhl> alaQ: ati
[04:25] <zipper> arturs: huh? Not sure what you're asking me
[04:26] <savetheWorld> Memories: sorry. :-) couldnt resist.
[04:26] <whyameye> padee: do you want to basically see the remote computer's display on the local computer, as with vnc?
[04:26] <nullkuhl> alaQ: ati mobility radeon x1800 with fglrx drivers , and currently am in an xgl session
[04:26] <Memories> savetheworld , dont worry
[04:26] <arturs> zipper: i try to install zaptel drivers for Asterisk on Ubuntu linux
[04:26] <nullkuhl> alaQ: also when i try now to type splash boot in a terminal i get the same error i used to get splash error blabla bla
[04:26] <J_P> hi all
[04:27] <ToddEDM2> Sakura... im not sure what your asking, i installed 7.04  for 64 bit pPCs
[04:27] <alaQ> nullkuhl: Well, I think I have a solution for the underscore thing.
[04:27] <zipper> arturs: sorry, dont have any experience with those drivers (or even Asterisk)
[04:27] <nullkuhl> which is ?
[04:27] <padee> whyameye: sorry, i am probably not very clear: i have comp A and comp B. from A i connect via ssh to B. on comp A i have the terminal from B, but i also would like to have the same terminal from A on B.
[04:27] <alaQ> nullkuhl: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/splashy-devel/2007-April/000674.html
[04:28] <Sakura> ToddEM2... I'm a noob but my personal experience is, many little problems were gone after installing i386.
[04:28] <arturs> zipper:  maby You know how to install chkconfig?
[04:28] <whyameye> padee: so if you saw the screen of B on A and you were manipulating that screen from A, would that solve your problem?
[04:28] <zipper> arturs: hell, i dont even know what chkconfig is :P
[04:28] <IdleOne> padee, then you need to ssh from B to A as you did from A to B
[04:28] <ToddEDM2> i486 would be the 64bit version?
[04:28] <arturs> :)
[04:29] <Sakura> i486 is a 32 bit machine of the 90's (last millenium)
[04:29] <nullkuhl> alaQ: yes am using splashy from initramfs but i heard i shud do that to make it work in feisty shall i undo this ?
[04:29] <Pici> ToddEDM2: i386 is the 32 bit version, there is no i486, afaik.
[04:29] <alaQ> no, that's fine, you just need to terminate the splashy process before X comes up.
[04:29] <nullkuhl> how to do that  ?
[04:30] <Sakura> Unix is compiled with 386 instruction set, it runs on all "intel compatible" machines
[04:30] <padee> whyameye: no. i need the same terminal on both computers. but on the remote computer it should only display the content what i type in on comp A. uff. was that clear?
[04:30] <raymondjtoth> ok i did that pic do i need to syinc it or wwill it do auto for me one tell it to use internet
[04:30] <zipper> Pici: i believe its called 80486 if anything
[04:30] <alaQ> nullkuhl: does splashy create a /etc/init.d/ entry?
[04:30] <raymondjtoth> fr time
[04:30] <Pici> zipper: right.
[04:30] <nullkuhl> alaQ: srry ,, but how can i know ?
[04:30] <raymondjtoth> just says selcet time server i haver
[04:30] <nullkuhl> alaQ: its only ma first week with linux
[04:30] <alaQ> is there a /etc/init.d/splashy file?
[04:31] <nullkuhl> alaQ: yes there is
[04:31] <sirbooboo> Anyone have success installing Ubuntu on  Dell e1505 w/ATI 1400?
[04:31] <alaQ> all right.  that makes it easier.  nullkuhl, we're going to need to edit the /etc/init.d/gdm file.
[04:31] <whyameye> padee: i can tell you how to get the screen of B as a window in A which you can control from either A or B, but that's as far as I can help.
[04:32] <raymondjtoth> sir i havr it on a dell laptop e1505
[04:32] <sirbooboo> raymondjtoth: You have 1400 ATI card?
[04:32] <raymondjtoth> pici now it sysa selcect a sever asnd i did ands syinc is grade oujt
[04:32] <raymondjtoth> sir have intel one
[04:32] <alaQ> nullkuhl: I've never used splashy before, so you'll have to bear with me a second.
[04:33] <sirbooboo> raymondjtoth: anything special I need to do?
[04:33] <nullkuhl> ok
[04:33] <nullkuhl> alaQ: ok,,
[04:33] <raymondjtoth> sire might need ati driver but that it
[04:33] <raymondjtoth> if all intel stuff nope
[04:33] <hatter> do you know of a putty like program in gnome for managing multiple servers ?
[04:34] <Pici> raymondjtoth: did you follow the instructions in the link I showed you?
[04:34] <raymondjtoth> yes
[04:34] <raymondjtoth> but one didnt go
[04:34] <sirbooboo> raymondjtoth: how or when do I put driver in? Alternate install stops midway, right now.
[04:34] <hatter> the gnome version of putty i have won't let me paste into it
[04:34] <raymondjtoth> sir4e can  now
[04:34] <raymondjtoth> it should finde it if on 704 version
[04:35] <raymondjtoth> pici i did it and syinc is grade out still
[04:35] <alaQ> find the section for starting gdm, there will be an entry on stopping usplash.
[04:35] <Sakura> hatter: I use ssh as a putty replacement :)
[04:36] <ToddEDM2> can i get higher resolution than 1024x768?
[04:36] <alaQ> nullkuhl: what you need to do is, before the lines saying 'we need to stop usplash', you need to add '/etc/init.d/splashy stop'
[04:36] <hatter> sakura, the reason i like putty is the management of multiple ip addresses and tunnels
[04:36] <Sakura> Type ssh root@yourserver.com and there are terminals which allow more than one session in one window if that's what you need
[04:36] <alexzz> hello everyone....
[04:37] <nullkuhl> alaQ: there is nothing like that in my gdm file..
[04:37] <nullkuhl> shall i paste bin it to u ?
[04:37] <Sakura> hatter: I believe you can use putty using Wine can you?
[04:37] <raymondjtoth> pici will the syinc be grade out if use it
[04:37] <alaQ> nullkuhl: it might help - on mine it's line 55
[04:37] <Sakura> hatter: This way you can also reuse your settings
[04:37] <hatter> there is a linux version of putty, but its not integrated with gnome and doesnt allow pasting into
[04:37] <alexzz> can some tell me how to configure dual monitor on ubuntu......with a nvidia 6200 LE card.......
[04:37] <Pici> raymondjtoth: It should automatically sync up
[04:37] <nullkuhl> alaQ: # if usplash is running, make sure to stop it now, yes "start" kills it.
[04:37] <raymondjtoth> so pici im new still so it will be grade out
[04:38] <nullkuhl> this line ?
[04:38] <alexzz> it works with the nvidia driver.....but when i restart it does'nt
[04:38] <Pici> raymondjtoth: Yes.
[04:38] <raymondjtoth> pici were the zip thing in here
[04:38] <alaQ> nullkuhl: yep, before that, add '/etc/init.d/splashy stop'.  that should fix the underline thing (hopefully...)
[04:38] <slackmagic> alexzz: google for   " twinview AND nvidia AND xorg.conf " and check out the first few hits
[04:39] <F1N1TY> Hello guys, quick question:  Is there a way to adjust brightness/contrast in ubuntu?
[04:39] <nullkuhl> alaQ:  and as for the progress bar thingie
[04:39] <Sakura> F1N1TY: There might be knobs on your monitor?
[04:39] <alexzz> i have done that a few times .....but i guess there is aproblem with the module loader........should i update it....
[04:39] <nullkuhl> i see no progress bar in the splash am having now
[04:39] <alaQ> nullkuhl: I'm not sure, honestly.
[04:40] <nullkuhl> ok let me restart and see this _ thingie
[04:40] <F1N1TY> Hmmm, was hoping there was something within Ubuntu
[04:40] <Sakura> F1N1TY: These settings are highly dependent on the driver, even on Windows...
[04:41] <whyameye> F1N1TY: what computer are you on?
[04:42] <F1N1TY> whyameye AMD Athlon 64 3700+, nVidia 7950GT 1GB ram, 74GB HDD
[04:42] <F1N1TY> sure you didn't need all that info
[04:42] <whyameye> F1N1TY: laptop or desktop?
[04:42] <F1N1TY> desktop
[04:43] <ToddEDM2> 74  gig HDD... thats common
[04:43] <aruiz_> m
[04:43] <aruiz_> no hay nadie?
[04:43] <F1N1TY> ToddEDM2: WD-Raptor
[04:43] <keck0f> Can i use "Distributed Replicated Block Devices" (DRBD) with ubuntu?
[04:43] <elin1> Hi, I'm from bulgaria and I have the folowing problem using openoffice on ubuntu 7.04 fiesty. I opened a *.doc file (word 6.0/95) and it seems that the chosen encoding is incorect. How can I change it?
[04:44] <whyameye> F1N1TY: I thought if it were a Mac or a laptop, there might be a way in ubuntu to control brightness.
[04:44] <gffd> is there an easy way to unmount a usb?  do I need to unmount it before taking it out?
[04:44] <keck0f> gffd: yes, unmount it before taking it out.
[04:44] <elin1> gffd: yes. try umount and the folder where it is mounted : "umount /media/usb"
[04:45] <ToddEDM2> F1N1TY use a high contrast theme
[04:45] <gffd> elin1: I mean other than issuing commands at the prompt?  Was looking for some gui method.
[04:45] <keck0f> gffd: i'd better do "sync ; umount /media/usb..."
[04:45] <gffd> there's nothing built into nautilus for this?
[04:46] <F1N1TY> ToddEDM2: yeah, that's what I'm doing... suppose it'll have to do :)
[04:46] <Sakura> F1N1TY: Sorry there is no information available at the Nvidia forum at http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/
[04:46] <alaQ> gffd: right-click the icon, and hit 'eject' or 'safely remove'
[04:46] <elin1> gffd: go to Places->Computer... and rightclick unmount media
[04:46] <alaQ> gffd: '\unmount volume'
[04:46] <F1N1TY> haha, np Sakura, small inconvenience... I can use my monitor to do it :)
[04:46] <gffd> alaQ: I'm not seeing that option
[04:47] <Sakura> At least I tried \(^^)/
[04:47] <alaQ> gffd: right click on the device icon, and hit 'unmount volume'.  it should be the second option from the bottom.
[04:47] <terenz> hi
[04:47] <gffd> thanks elin1!
[04:48] <terenz> does anybody know why my gnome-terminal (bash) returns error when i execute a script containing functions?
[04:48] <elin1> someone help me change the encoding of a word 6.0/95 document witn Open Office? :)
[04:49] <DJ_Danni> Hello
[04:49] <Sakura> elin: Ask a friend with Windows to convert it to Word 2000/XP is not an option?
[04:49] <Pici> terenz: try putting #!/bin/bash at the top of the script.  By default sh is linked to /bin/dash, which can cause some issues.
[04:49] <czester> Hello

[04:51] <kiss> hello
[04:51] <Sakura> HorizonXP: 8 Gigs to go! ;)
[04:51] <silvertip257> I have a slight problem with tar-ing and bz2-ing the contents of a partition; I get this error message:  tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
[04:51] <HorizonXP> but i only see 2.6gb used
[04:51] <eyemean> hi, with compiz (gnombe) is there some sort of stitch command to stitch 2 desktop screens together in cube mode?
[04:51] <raymondjtoth> rfoad if want to wireless in holtel
[04:52] <SlimeyPete> HorizonXP: is that including subfolders?
[04:52] <alaQ> HorizonXP: do you use wine?
[04:52] <DJ_Danni> Can somone help me with wireless on my laptop?
[04:52] <Sakura> HorizonXP: You have many, very small files on that partition?
[04:52] <SlimeyPete> (including the hidden ones)
[04:52] <Veinor> I'm having a problem with my iPod; no matter what, I can't send playlists
[04:52] <TitanP4> I have a question about Ubuntu and installing it in my Lap top , is there any good imformation out there
[04:52] <RAdam1> eyemean: are you using the default installed compiz implementation?
[04:52] <HorizonXP> well, i'm checking using nautilus
[04:52] <vitalik> \j #sauna.by
[04:52] <motin> How do I install the firefox developer tools? In gentoo I'd use the "mozdevelop" flag but in Ubuntu?
[04:52] <eyemean> im new to linux, but as far as i know i am yes
[04:52] <HorizonXP> it should be looking at everything
[04:52] <Veinor> I can send music just fine, but for some reason I can't actually send a playlist
[04:53] <SlimeyPete> HorizonXP: drop into a terminal and type "du -hs". That'll give you the actual usage, including all subdirectories (hidden or not)
[04:53] <cadiz> gente de cadiz
[04:53] <cadiz> gente de cadiz
[04:53] <eyemean> i edited mt xorg file to enable dual screen on ubuntu, took ages, lol
[04:53] <Sakura> HorizonXP, a disk is separated in "blocks" of a certain size. Every file, no matter how small, will use at least one single "block". On modern OS this might be alot of wasted space
[04:53] <noob> HELP! How do I get flash in youtube to work with a amd64 ubuntu OS?
[04:53] <HorizonXP> ok, i'm running thtat command now
[04:53] <SlimeyPete> Sakura: unlikely to be 25GBs worth, though
[04:53] <raymondjtoth> any one know of good tool if in hotel and give me free wireless what tool do i want
[04:54] <raymondjtoth> im on lkapy
[04:54] <Sakura> SlimeyPete you might not be a programmer? ;)
[04:54] <raymondjtoth> lapy
[04:54] <SlimeyPete> HorizonXP: chances are that you've got a ton of stuff sitting in hidden directories. You can see all the directories by typing "ls -a".
[04:54] <alaQ> SlimeyPete: nicely done - I'll add that to my list of commands to remember. :)
[04:54] <kane77> how can I delete the default keyring?
[04:54] <Veinor> This happens when I'm using gtkpod or amarok
[04:54] <SlimeyPete> alaQ: :)
[04:54] <HorizonXP> i don't think that's the case
[04:54] <kdubois> noob, your best shot is to try to compile the OSS implementations of flash... i dont think adobe's released an official 64 bit version yet.... (correct me if i'm wrong...)
[04:54] <HorizonXP> i looked at the hidden folders
[04:54] <DJ_Danni> Can somone help me with wireless netwoork on Laptop?
[04:54] <motin> How do I reinstall firefox?
[04:55] <HorizonXP> ok, it said 22G
[04:55] <Sakura> Ok I have 86% wasted space in my delphi directory. You're right it's not 25 Gigs :)
[04:55] <Veinor> I can modify existing playlists, but I can't create a new one. It shows up on this 'phantom zone' such that gtkpod and amarok can see it, but I can't see it from the main iPod menu.
[04:55] <eyemean> did u miss what i wrote Radaml? i just saw u signed back in
[04:55] <SlimeyPete> HorizonXP: now do a "du -hs *"
[04:55] <DJ_Danni> Can somone help me with wireless netwoork on Laptop?
[04:55] <RAdam1> Does anyone know why I can't use my real username in IRC? I'm using Pidgin
[04:55] <RAdam1> Yes, I missed it, eyemean
[04:55] <RAdam1> Sorry
[04:55] <SlimeyPete> HorizonXP: that'll give you a breakdown of the usage of each subdirectory
[04:55] <SlimeyPete> so you can pinpoint where the space is being used
[04:56] <HorizonXP> aiight, that's gonna help me track it down
[04:56] <eyemean>  im new to linux, but as far as i know i am yes, i edited mt xorg file to enable dual screen on ubuntu, took ages, lol
[04:56] <Steeple> hello! know of a deb. to install  dock engage on feisty ?

[04:58] <Stream_Space> hp
[04:59] <Luxurious> Has anyone experienced the problem that after you remove PHP/Apache/MySQL, PHP doesn't seem to configure itself automatically again?
[04:59] <RAdams> eyemean: I don't think you can do that with the default compiz
[04:59] <raymondjtoth> veinor i going to hotle that give me free wireles ssince i got wireless on lapy and need a toold to hope on it what can i use
[04:59] <raymondjtoth> i new to this and dont got one for it
[04:59] <Veinor> raymondjtoth: What do you mean a 'tool to hop on it'?
[04:59] <VoX> Luxurious: if you dont tell apt to remove /everything/, it removes the package but keeps the configuration
[04:59] <eyemean> Radams, oh ok, do u know how i could do that then pls?
[04:59] <HorizonXP> ok guys
[04:59] <raymondjtoth> veinor to get on internet at it
[04:59] <RAdams> eyemean: you probably need to install the "full compiz" -- go into synaptic and find "compiz" -- you'll see there's a full compiz implemetation with more controls
[04:59] <HorizonXP> apparently my personal home dir is 22G
[04:59] <raymondjtoth> wireless

[05:00] <Stream_Space> alaQ I have HP Compaq nx6325 and i see the wireless tools but i wont wootrk to connect via wireless
[05:00] <HorizonXP> i ran the command inside my home dir
[05:00] <Luxurious> VoX, thank you such a fat bunch
[05:00] <alaQ> Stream_Space: I would like you to run the command 'lspci | grep Ethernet' in a terminal, and put the result on pastebin.
[05:00] <Veinor> is it like a special program that they want you to install, or a general program for wireless?
[05:00] <HorizonXP> and there's not 22G of stuff listed
[05:00] <raymondjtoth> verinor what that sed is all i need is laptop and im set

[05:01] <Veinor> raymondjtoth: OK, explain. Is the hotel saying you need to run a program?
[05:01] <Veinor> raymondjtoth: Oh, you mean like something to find points.
[05:01] <terenz> when I execute a script containing a function (e.g. " function hi { echo ciao; }"), my terminal says "function not found" and execute the code inside the function... how is it possible?
[05:02] <raymondjtoth> veinor yes

[05:20] <lutz_> !OpenOffice icons me
[05:20] <raymondjtoth> ?
[05:21] <alaQ> DBlue: apt-get install gnome-ppp
[05:21] <raymondjtoth> !openoffice
[05:21] <ubotu> a free and open source office suite, including word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, vector drawing and database components.  To install: "sudo apt-get install openoffice.org". User help available in #users.openoffice.org
[05:21] <DBlue> I downloaded from synaptic an X-mam, but it is not in the menu, where is it?
[05:21] <HorizonXP> Toma-: Like, no apps utilize it? So I wouldn't see a speed up?
[05:21] <jatin> Toma dual moniter works without rebooting the machine... however.. when i reboot the machine the dual moniter don't  work......The settings r not saving
[05:21] <DJ-_-> hi..iin synaptic it says bluez-utils and the gnome-bluez both are installed....i plugged in the bluetooth dongle...now how do i start using it?
[05:21] <Monteh> would anyone know where i can find a disc image mounting tool? similar to daemon tools?
[05:22] <aleksanteri> Hw can I "unmark" a package from being installed with apt?
[05:22] <aleksanteri> How can I "unmark" a package from being installed with apt? *
[05:22] <Toma-> HorizonXP: nope. also, 64bit is only really going to speed up ram thats over like 4 gigs
[05:22] <Sakura> DBlue: Only Gnome/KDE software integrates into the menu structure you have to use a console
[05:22] <Toma-> jatin: are you using nvidia-settings?
[05:22] <raymondjtoth> toma how do i get 3d and open gl like windows has
[05:22] <HorizonXP> Toma-: wth? so what's the point of 64-bit? I'm pretty sure it's not just due to ram
[05:22] <jatin> yes.. toma
[05:22] <raymondjtoth> will need driver i think
[05:22] <Toma-> raymondjtoth: no idea what youre talking about sorry :<
[05:23] <DJ-_-> Toma-: hi..iin synaptic it says bluez-utils and the gnome-bluez both are installed....i plugged in the bluetooth dongle...now how do i start using it?
[05:23] <zipper> Sakura: not true, you can add your own menu entires to both KDE and Gnome
[05:23] <void^> Toma-: that's.. not entirely correct. 64bit architecture has 64bit registers, and a few extra registers even. you'll notice it in some use cases like hashing large amounts of data
[05:23] <raymondjtoth> toma 3d and open gl graphic like 2windows has
[05:23] <DBlue> I had installed an 32 bit Ubuntu 7.04 on AMD 64, why the 32 bit version fucntion, and is it ok that, can it damaged the machine?
[05:23] <Sakura> raymondjtoth the Nvidia driver contains OpenGL functionality
[05:23] <HorizonXP> Toma-: and 64bit allows the use of more registers in the cpu (almost double) so if an app was recompiled for 64bit, it should speed it up right?
[05:23] <DJ-_-> brb
[05:23] <raymondjtoth> sakura im on intel
[05:23] <Toma-> jatin: ok, run "nvidia-settings -l" whn your session loads. "System > Prefs > Session"
[05:23] <Sakura> but it's not opensource
[05:23] <raymondjtoth> not nidia
[05:23] <raymondjtoth> dose that mattor
[05:23] <zipper> DBlue: worst thing that can happend, is failure to boot up the kernel
[05:23] <Sakura> raymondjtoth you have to ask Intel for a linux driver :(
[05:23] <raymondjtoth> sakura i have dell e1505 lapty
[05:23] <Toma-> void^: generally, useless to the average joe :)
[05:24] <raymondjtoth> not yet
[05:24] <raymondjtoth> sakura how do i do that
[05:24] <HorizonXP> Toma-: I don't think ur right
[05:24] <ninina> anyone know how to change the default application for opening media files?
[05:24] <raymondjtoth> with sudo tool
[05:24] <void^> Toma-: performance is useless to average joe ;)
[05:24] <zipper> DBlue: although i bet running 32bit on a 64bit cpu would work, you wouldnt get optimal performance
[05:24] <Sakura> zipper: X software doesn't install ITSELF in that menu. I never said you cannot do that manually :/
[05:24] <Toma-> HorizonXP: no. no apps use the 64bit registers yet
[05:24] <alaQ> raymondjtoth: trying to get openGL working?
[05:24] <zipper> Sakura: as long as we agree :)
[05:24] <HorizonXP> Toma-: if they're recompiled using the 64bit compiler, they do
[05:24] <DBlue> Where to find "Nvidia ge force MX 4400 with 8X" drivers for UBUNTU other than the restricted or NVIDIA's site beta drivers?
[05:24] <Toma-> HorizonXP: ive got a 386 and a 64bit install on my 64bit amd and there is absolutely no speed difference
[05:24] <raymondjtoth> and 3d
[05:24] <Stream_Space> I have WPA key for the wirell on my routher
[05:24] <Sakura> raymondjtoth, a suggestion: look up the manual for your machine for the "support phone number" :)
[05:24] <BugeyeD> hi all. what's the _correct_ place to be looking for ubuntu/xen information? stuff seems to be spread all over the place, some of which conflicts with each other.
[05:25] <alaQ> DBlue: those are the only places you can find them.
[05:25] <HorizonXP> Toma-: The compiler will use the extra registers instead of accessing your RAM
[05:25] <Stream_Space> alaQ I have WPA key for the wirell on my routher
[05:25] <alaQ> raymondjtoth: what type of graphics card do you have?
[05:25] <HorizonXP> Toma-: I find that hard to believe.. i was asking which i should use because I was worried about 32bit app support
[05:25] <DBlue> But the drivers from NVIDIA crashed my X server
[05:25] <Sakura> Toma- I can confirm that but you will notice only speed differences of 20% or more
[05:25] <zipper> DBlue: well, you can use the "nv" driver instead, but then you wont get hardware accelleration
[05:25] <raymondjtoth> ala its intel one
[05:25] <raymondjtoth> dell gave me
[05:25] <DBlue> How to get?
[05:25] <Sakura> But i can confirm it's not running Neverwinter Nights 1 on 64-bit
[05:26] <parmindergupta> hi everyone,
[05:26] <alaQ> raymondjtoth: run 'lspci | grep VGA' and tell me the result
[05:26] <parmindergupta> how do i prevent certain modules from being loaded in ubuntu/xubuntu
[05:26] <Sakura> zipper: He explicitly asked for OpenGL so "nv" is definitely not an option
[05:26] <DBlue> Please, tell me i cant run mesa, i need to finnish an animation!
[05:26] <zipper> parmindergupta: Hi docter nick!
[05:26] <raymondjtoth> alaq were
[05:26] <parmindergupta> i mean kernel modules :)
[05:26] <zipper> Sakura: oh, sorry, must have missed that
[05:26] <alaQ> raymondjtoth: run that command in a terminal
[05:27] <zipper> Sakura: then he's out of luck. Afaik there are no other hardware accellerated drivers than the restricted ones
[05:27] <raymondjtoth> alaq  VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[05:27] <Sakura> Nvidia is the only openGl driver I'm aware of
[05:27] <Stream_Space> She sind the Wireless and when i connect it seemt to be not connected.
[05:27] <DBlue> How can i use the classic root user in Ubuntu, like in mandrake or SUSE
[05:27] <Stream_Space> What can i do?
[05:27] <Sakura> Anyone think DBlue is really asking questions?
[05:27] <alaQ> Sakura: much more for OGL than just NV :)
[05:28] <zipper> DBlue: in ubuntu, we use "sudo" instead
[05:28] <netcelli> hi
[05:28] <netcelli> :)
[05:28] <DBlue> Sorry, but i'm new to LINUX?
[05:28] <alaQ> raymondjtoth: you should have OpenGL/ 3d apps running already.
[05:28] <zipper> DBlue: like, "sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[05:28] <raymondjtoth> i dont tryed top switcch chess and sed i dont have 3d
[05:28] <BugeyeD> DBlue: sudo passwd root   <-- can enable root login, but is unsupported by ubuntu
[05:28] <raymondjtoth> or open gl
[05:28] <zipper> BugeyeD: please dont tell newbies how to log in as root =/
[05:28] <netcelli> can some1 explain me why last ubuntu doesnt see my hard disk? :P
[05:29] <raymondjtoth> alaq do i want these http://www.intellinuxgraphics.org/
[05:29] <alaQ> raymondjtoth: open up a terminal, and type 'glxgears' and see what happens.
[05:29] <DJ-_-> back....so does anyone know:::
[05:29] <DJ-_-> in synaptic it says bluez-utils and the gnome-bluez both are installed....i plugged in the bluetooth dongle...now how do i start using it?
[05:29] <preaction> BugeyeD: if you need a root shell, try sudo -s or sudo su -
[05:29] <zipper> eeek
[05:29] <zipper> whats with the root logins/shells?
[05:29] <zipper> it was removed for a reason
[05:29] <zipper> "removed"
[05:29] <raymondjtoth> alaq im new just put on yesterday
[05:30] <Monteh> anyone know a solid virtual disc drive software for linux apart from the loopback command?
[05:30] <raymondjtoth> alaq i see wheels
[05:30] <alaQ> raymondjtoth: I can tell.  I'll see what I can do to walk you through this.
[05:30] <raymondjtoth> moving
[05:30] <BugeyeD> preaction: i'm aware. i don't login as root, only answered a question.
[05:30] <preaction> zipper: because the entire idea of "root" is the biggest breach to security, yet prepending "sudo" to a list of 10 commands that need root privs is annoying
[05:30] <DBlue> I really sorry for this tons of questions, but i'm trying to learn LINUX, cause i can't use win, cause it is so crashy!
[05:30] <gordonjcp> Monteh: like what?
[05:30] <Toma-> Monteh: whats wrong with mount -o loop ?
[05:30] <eyemean> Package w32codecs is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[05:30] <eyemean> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[05:30] <eyemean> is only available from another source
[05:30] <raymondjtoth> alaq see my liojnk i posted
[05:30] <Monteh> to mount disc images in linux apart from .isos
[05:30] <Sakura> Monteh: I use "truecrypt" for that purpose it also encrypts everything
[05:30] <raymondjtoth> to you do i need those
[05:30] <kritzstapf> every time i start gajim i have to enter the password for my keyring, how to change this? :/
[05:30] <zipper> preaction: i agree, but i doubt teaching newbies how to login as root is a good idea... At least not untill they understand what's going on.
[05:31] <Monteh> i have .mds etc etc
[05:31] <DJ-_-> anyone know anything about bluez-utils setup in ubuntu
[05:31] <Sakura> Monteh Sorry I thought you were talking about your own images
[05:31] <eyemean> could any1 suggest source for feisty w32codecs pls
[05:31] <DBlue> Why mp3 files cannot be played in mplayer in ubuntu?
[05:31] <Sakura> !w32codecs
[05:31] <zipper> DBlue: no worries, its the only way to learn. Asking, and more important: READING
[05:31] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[05:31] <DJ-_-> !bluetooth
[05:31] <ubotu> For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[05:31] <preaction> !mp3 | DBlue
[05:32] <alaQ> raymondjtoth: no, you don't.  in fact, your openGL is running perfectly fine.
[05:32] <Toma-> DBlue: how many questions have you asking in the last 30 mins?
[05:32] <raymondjtoth> how i get 3d going
[05:32] <Monteh> so thre isnt anything u.u
[05:32] <raymondjtoth> alaq
[05:32] <ubotu> DBlue: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[05:32] <raymondjtoth> want 3d alaq also
[05:32] <kane77> oops I deleted the default keyring but now it says: "Keyring daemon is not running." how do I run it?
[05:32] <DBlue> Sorry, I dont count!
[05:32] <raymondjtoth> not just 2d
[05:32] <Toma-> raymondjtoth: 3d what
[05:32] <raymondjtoth> you know some game need direct 3d
[05:32] <Beamoo> Hello
[05:32] <zipper> DBlue: neither should you. It's okay to ask a lot when being new.
[05:33] <Toma-> raymondjtoth: you cant get directx on linux
[05:33] <Beamoo> Can some1 help me? I having trouble extracting files outside my folder
[05:33] <zipper> DBlue: just expect to be pointed in the direction of a lot of guides/articles.
[05:33] <raymondjtoth> toma i know
[05:33] <Sakura> raymondjtoth: Direct 3d is (c) (r) and (tm) Microsoft.
[05:33] <Beamoo> Want to extract files to this folder usr/share/amsn/skins
[05:33] <Beamoo> but all it says is tht i dont have permission
[05:33] <raymondjtoth> alaq i only got 2d how i get 3d working
[05:33] <alaQ> raymondjtoth: you're missing some libraries that are needed to run it -
[05:33] <Fisherss> Beamoo, what's the problem exactly ?
[05:33] <raymondjtoth> alaq what i need
[05:33] <DBlue> Who is the referens of microsofts directX in Linux Ubuntu?
[05:33] <Sakura> Beamoo: You need to sudo to get root perms
[05:33] <zipper> DBlue: referens?
[05:34] <rapter> Big problem with my mouse . When I move it gets blockt on the path licke the processor coudnt ceap up so fast (I have core duo so that isent the isue) How doo I fix it???
[05:34] <alaQ> raymondjtoth: I'm working on it - I can't find things instantly.  Give me a second to look
[05:34] <Fisherss> you may be operating a folder which doesn't belong to you
[05:34] <Beamoo> oyeah ie read that but how do i extract in the terminal?
[05:34] <raymondjtoth> ok alaq
[05:34] <Smygis_> Sakura, You forgot patented ;)
[05:34] <Beamoo> whats the command for extracting in the terminal
[05:34] <raymondjtoth> dblkue im moving my laptop to linux so im ne yetw not know all lingo
[05:34] <raymondjtoth> on linux
[05:34] <kritzstapf> Beamoo: you use the gui way with "gksudo nautilus" for example
[05:34] <skar> hi, i've feisty 32 bit installed, how do i install all the updates/upgrades?
[05:34] <zipper> DBlue: linux uses something called openGL (mostly) - it's used in games like quake and unreal tournament, which is why they run GREAT in linux (i get better fps than in windows)
[05:34] <raymondjtoth> still use microsoft on desktop for reson
[05:35] <DBlue> where to find it!
[05:35] <aleksanteri> skar: sudo apt-get upgrade
[05:35] <raymondjtoth> alek what that
[05:35] <zipper> DBlue: its already there. You probably just need to install a driver for your gfx card in order to use it.
[05:35] <Sakura> OMCG! Direct(r) 3d(tm) is patented, ownzed, and defended by VeryBigCorporationOfAmerica :)
[05:35] <Beamoo> ok
[05:35] <skar> aleksanteri: thanx, that seems to work :)
[05:35] <alaQ> raymondjtoth: you'll at least need to run 'sudo apt-get install python-opengl' in a terminal, i'm not sure if you'll need another package yet or not.
[05:35] <bridget_> pffffft microsoft
[05:35] <LordLimecat> im having some issues with a program thats supposed to autorun @ startup, but isnt :(
[05:36] <Bog`> i can't configure my network card because the window disappears right after i open it
[05:36] <Beamoo> but what should i write in the terminal? :S I such a noob
[05:36] <Sakura> DBlue, Direct 3d is owned by Microsoft. There is a little emulation in the Wine library. www.winehq.com
[05:36] <LordLimecat> its set to run as sudo, and i THINK i have visudo configured correctly, but its just not working unless i manually run it
[05:36] <Monteh> i just realised
[05:36] <Monteh> why dont i just burn the isos to disc
[05:36] <Monteh> lmao
[05:36] <Sakura> He's programming his phone modem with Direct 3d...
[05:36] <raymondjtoth> ok alalq can you keep looking pls
[05:37] <raymondjtoth> alaq done
[05:37] <raymondjtoth> next
[05:37] <LordLimecat> Monteh: are you trying to mount an iso?
[05:37] <Beamoo> So how should i do to extract the files to the location even thou i dont have permission ? I know hat i should use sudo but what moore should i write in the console
[05:37] <Beamoo> can some1 type the command ?
[05:37] <PriceChild> !away > Frogzoo_away
[05:37] <LordLimecat> someone may have to help me with this, but i believe its somethin like mount -t iso9660 [path to iso] , but you need to specify a loop option int here somewhere
[05:37] <raymondjtoth> alaq ty for helpng me
[05:38] <Sakura> Beamoo: unzip -o archive.zip
[05:38] <Beamoo> ok

[05:50] <trelayne>  hi all, I will be setting up a new notebook with Feisty but I need to know how best to secure with a firewall..does anyone have an recommendations for free firewall software?
[05:50] <Beamoo> the star is the file that should be copied right ?
[05:50] <Waakzamheid> c'mon, if anyone can just get me to a point where i can browse the forums i'll fix it myself, but i can't load them up either....
[05:50] <Sakura> xneedhelpx: Just asking, because after installing all rpms are in /var/cache/apt/archives
[05:50] <Waakzamheid> any love?
[05:50] <maximo> alguien espaolll
[05:50] <mc44> !firewall | trelayne
[05:50] <ubotu> trelayne: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[05:50] <trelayne> thanks...
[05:51] <Sakura> You could perhaps burn them on CD and install them manually
[05:51] <ToddEDM2> Your architecture, x86_64 is not supported by the Adobe Flash Player installer
[05:51] <xneedhelpx> okay.
[05:51] <Shankysv87> is there a way to get my evolution email to work with hotmail hotmail live?

[05:52] <Sakura> Shankysv87: Does hotmail have pop3 server?
[05:52] <Shankysv87> i'm not sure
[05:52] <xneedhelpx> its okay
[05:53] <Shankysv87> let me find out
[05:53] <xneedhelpx> so basically i can copy the rpms from the live cd?

[05:55] <pike_> Monteh: mostly from what i have used an external inclosure for a cdrw without problem
[05:55] <Sakura> xneedhelpx: Apt-get is just a software to manage the archives. Automates everything. You can copy the deb or rpm packages from other systems but they might be out of date.

[06:01] <Waakzamheid> anyone help with some cross-browser problem i'm having?
[06:01] <kdubois> trelayne, yes, wifi encryption is handled by routers. If it says open or unsecured, then there is no encryption and your packets can be sniffed out

[06:15] <Biso> I need help please , Now I put my live ubuntu 7.4 cd and I want to partition my hard disk with a swap , What can I do ?
[06:15] <Veinor> Whenever I send a playlist to my iPod in GTKpod or Amarok, it says it was sent, but I can't access it. It's still there when I reconnect; it's like a 'phantom zone'; like right now it says I have one called 'heavy', but amarok says I have one called 'top songs' as well that isn't showing.
[06:16] <haggard> yimmmy: try asking in #cinelerra
[06:16] <PriceChild> Biso, just follow the install application, it will help you do all that :)
[06:16] <yimmmy> ok i dint know they had a irc thanks
[06:16] <Biso> I need help please , Now I put my live ubuntu 7.4 cd and I want to partition my hard disk with a swap , What can I do ?
[06:16] <sipior> Biso: look up two lines
[06:17] <jimcooncat> going to redo my office computer that has breezy on it. Is dapper still relevant, or should I go with fiesty?
[06:17] <Biso> Please
[06:17] <yimmmy> is there a compiz and a video editing channel for ubuntu?
[06:17] <Biso> I will partition it manually
[06:17] <WaxyFresh> anyone here know how to get my laptop to read SD sans disk card from a digi cam?
[06:17] <PriceChild> yimmmy, #ubuntu-effects for compiz
[06:17] <kdubois> jimcooncat, no reason not to use fiesty
[06:17] <pike_> Biso: you have freespace available? unpartitioned?
[06:17] <Biso> yes
[06:17] <Biso> all hard disk
[06:17] <PriceChild> jimcooncat, dapper will be supported after feisty's EOL
[06:17] <WaxyFresh> how do i tell what version of ubuntu im running
[06:17] <yimmmy> do i have to join a different server for that
[06:18] <PriceChild> WaxyFresh, lsb_release -a
[06:18] <kdubois> Biso, you need to set the filesystem type to 'swap'
[06:18] <Biso> ok
[06:18] <jimcooncat> thanks, kdubois -- I've seen the problems with fiesty freezing in the forums
[06:18] <nomexous> no video showing in games; any help please?
[06:18] <Biso> how can i start?
[06:18] <WaxyFresh> PriceChild: thanks
[06:18] <DJ-_-> PriceChild: hi bro...when i do a hcitool scan....it just goes to inquiry failed: connection timed out....any ideas
[06:18] <kdubois> jimcooncat, i've been using it since it was released and i havent had any problems
[06:18] <Biso> 20 giga for system ext3
[06:18] <jimcooncat> PriceChild, would dapper get any new functionality, or is that process frozen?
[06:18] <kdubois> nomexous, what do you mean 'games'?
[06:18] <Biso> it will be primary
[06:18] <PriceChild> DJ-_-, please don't direct your initial questions to specific people. You will get less attention from others who actually know what they're doing :)
[06:19] <sipior> nomexous: much more info is needed: are you running compiz/beryl? what video hardware? what games?
[06:19] <Biso> Please
[06:19] <PriceChild> jimcooncat, dapper has more features over breezy. Its also an LTS release which means its supported a lot longer. I advise you to stick live cds in and try :)
[06:19] <nomexous> kdubois, games on wine, pSX (a playstation emulator), and the America's Army linux native client
[06:19] <DJ-_-> PriceChild: well i listed in the room before but no response, so i thought you may know
[06:19] <pike_> Biso: sudo -i; then: cfdisk /dev/hda   create the partition and change the type to swap then select write.  when youre done and back at terminal type mkfs. and hit tab a few times it will display all the options youll just mkfs.something /dev/hda4 where hda4 is whatever partition you made
[06:19] <Biso> lern me how to manually  partition my disk
[06:19] <crolle17> wanted to record some vinyl-records, but i didn't get it running (sound out is working). i installed audiocity for recording.which driver do i have to set/install?
[06:19] <jimcooncat> PriceChild, ty
[06:19] <nomexous> kdubois, i have nvidia GeForce4 MX Integrated GPU
[06:19] <PriceChild> Biso, i advise you follow the "guided partitioning" of the installer
[06:19] <Waak> PriceChild: ok, and now firefox is hanging
[06:19] <crolle17> i mean which audiodriver do i have to install?
[06:19] <Waak> this is *awesome*
[06:20] <PriceChild> Waak, stick a live cd in and see if you get the same problems :)
[06:20] <Veinor> Whenever I send a playlist to my iPod in GTKpod or Amarok, it says it was sent, but I can't access it. It's still there when I reconnect; it's like a 'phantom zone'; like right now it says I have one called 'heavy', but amarok says I have one called 'top songs' as well that isn't showing.
[06:20] <crolle17> default set: ALSA
[06:20] <Neil-> Pricechild: If I click 'View in standalone player', copy the .ram address into realplayer, it works. Clicking it normally, or trying to view through the realplayer browser plugin, fails
[06:20] <Neil-> v odd :)
[06:20] <nomexous> and i don't know what compiz or beryl are
[06:20] <Neil-> At least I can watch now though
[06:20] <{DB}HobbitJa> Hi everyone, any idea how to compile usb printer support for my nas device which is running linux kernel 2.6?
[06:20] <Waak> ok, gotta get a liveCD first
[06:20] <PriceChild> Neil-, cool :) Im' sure it'll be fixed one day...
[06:20] <soundray> Veinor: try using filenames without spaces or other odd characters
[06:21] <PriceChild> !pm | Biso
[06:21] <Waak> PriceChild: can you shoot me the link straight to the directory listing?
[06:21] <ubotu> Biso: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[06:21] <Waak> hard for me to get there otherwise
[06:21] <kdubois> nomexous, you have beryl? i experience video playback problems with beryl too. it seemed to render the video 'under' where beryl was being rendered
[06:21] <PriceChild> Waak, standard i386 disk?
[06:21] <Waak> 64
[06:21] <Biso> sorry
[06:21] <Waak> i can get it from the directory listing
[06:21] <nomexous> kdubois, i should clarify
[06:21] <PriceChild> Waak, feisty?
[06:21] <pike_> Biso: there are numerous guides for creating swap partitions in linux any of em should work for you
[06:21] <bullgard4> What means 'link-local 169.254.0.0' in http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/11623/?
[06:21] <kdubois> nomexous, probably, i dont think i understand the problem :-D
[06:21] <nomexous> the game starts, but the screen is blank
[06:22] <PriceChild> Waak, http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-amd64.iso
[06:22] <Veinor> soundray: Nope, doesn't help.
[06:22] <nomexous> there is sound, i can navigate menus, but the screen is completely blank
[06:22] <Waak> thanks
[06:22] <Biso> I have 80 giga free now
[06:23] <yimmmy> how can you tell how much space you have left on you hdd it dosent say in mycomputer
[06:23] <pike_> yimmmy: df -h
[06:23] <nomexous> kdubois - and i don't have either beryl or compiz
[06:23] <DJ-_-> hi..when i do a hcitool dev...it lists my bluetooth dongle with its bt address...but when i try a hcitool scan it given Inquiry Failed: Connection Timed out...i have tried a lot of times now...anyone know why this maybe happening?
[06:23] <pike_> yimmmy: the -h isnt needed but makes it more readable
[06:23] <sipior> nomexous: you might try running the game as root, see if it's a permissions issue
[06:23] <soundray> Veinor: your question is fairly specific -- leave more time before you repeat it.
[06:24] <Biso> all i want to make a ex3 partition and swap for 786 of ram
[06:24] <Veinor> soundray: sorry.
[06:24] <soundray> Veinor: no worries.
[06:24] <pike_> nomexous: if you do that though with sudo you might need to chown some .config files after depending on the game
[06:24] <Biso> now i am on Prepare disk space
[06:24] <WaxyFresh> is there a way to update my sources list from the comand line?
[06:24] <nomexous> pike_: i don't understand
[06:24] <pike_> WaxyFresh: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:25] <soundray> Veinor: you may find it less frustrating to come back every hour or so when different people have logged on
[06:25] <Veinor> soundray: ah
[06:25] <sipior> nomexous:  ignore pike_  for the moment, and we'll worry about it when/if you get the ting working
[06:25] <Biso> please help me , now I am on Prepare disk space
[06:25] <nomexous> sipior: oh, then let me test running AA from root...
[06:25] <Biso> all I want to make a partition with ex3 and swap for 512 ram
[06:26] <pike_> sipior: hey! ;p
[06:26] <crolle17> does somebody know about audiorecording in ubuntu?
[06:26] <sipior> pike_: politely ignore, of course :)
[06:26] <ToddEDM2> nickrud: thanks dood, i got flash installed!!!
[06:26] <dazed||lap> the guide to upgrade tells me to upgrade to breezy which is out of date i just want the damn repos for newest freaking version of ubunut
[06:26] <raymondjtoth> hay got na problem my mic dont work or captor
[06:26] <eva> <jcghaksjcdnb
[06:26] <Biso> no one can help me!
[06:26] <raymondjtoth> got a problem
[06:26] <tanaka> PriceChild: so i have to do the dist-upgrade and then install the  nvidia drvers?
[06:27] <Biso> please people
[06:27] <PriceChild> tanaka, have you already installed them somehow? if so then in what way?
[06:27] <Biso> please
[06:27] <soundray> Biso: you're asking to be spoonfed. Why don't you take a risk and try things out? You can always start over.
[06:27] <Biso> Prepare disk space
[06:27] <PriceChild> Biso, the wizard is very easy to follow, let it do it for you
[06:27] <sipior> Biso: time to jump in and take some bold action, my friend
[06:27] <nomexous> sipior: still nothing
[06:27] <raymondjtoth> any one see my q
[06:27] <eexpress> if anyone here use gEDA? know how to convert library?
[06:27] <kdubois> nomexous, is it a video that is having problem, or is it 3d rendering that isnt working?
[06:28] <tanaka> PriceChild: Just started with a clean install of linux
[06:28] <DJ-_-> raymondjoth: open app-->sound n vid--->sound recorder
[06:28] <PriceChild> tanaka, well then you have nothing to worry about
[06:28] <raymondjtoth> ok dj open
[06:28] <nomexous> kdubois: it's not a specific video that's not showing. when i start up the game, the screen is completely blank
[06:28] <dazed||lap> is there not a way to go from hoary headgehog version of ubuntu straight to the newest version?
[06:28] <DJ-_-> raymondjoth: now file-->open volume control
[06:28] <Biso> if i choose Guided resize ide1 master , partition 5 (hda5) and use freed space , Is it will make a swap too?
[06:28] <PriceChild> dazed||lap, you must go through the rest
[06:29] <dazed||lap> that is ridiculous
[06:29] <kdubois> hmm
[06:29] <PriceChild> dazed||lap, skipping versions is not supported nor advised
[06:29] <tanaka> PriceChild: so dist-upgrade and then installing the  nvidia drvers will work
[06:29] <nomexous> kdubois: i can still navigate menus by guessing where they are, sound still works
[06:29] <PriceChild> tanaka, i thought you didn't have them installed?
[06:29] <soundray> Biso: yes
[06:29] <kdubois> nomexous, go to a terminal and type glxgears
[06:29] <dazed||lap> PriceChild, i cant go from hoary to breezy cuz breezy repos arent up anymore
[06:29] <dazed||lap> PriceChild, and thats the next up the list
[06:29] <Biso> did the swap will fast my ubuntu?
[06:30] <aro0> is that a question
[06:30] <kdubois> nomexous, you should see 3 rotating gears.....
[06:30] <nomexous> kdubois: i see it
[06:30] <DJ-_-> Bisco: it acts like spare RAM when you run out of ram
[06:30] <dazed||lap> PriceChild, should i skip breezy and goto one thats not out of date?
[06:30] <Biso> Thank you very much
[06:30] <PriceChild> dazed||lap, one moment
[06:30] <Biso> thanks alot
[06:30] <DJ-_-> Biso: np
[06:30] <raymondjtoth> dj no sound
[06:30] <raymondjtoth> out of mic
[06:30] <tanaka> PriceChild: I don't.I am asking wether i should upgrade to 2.6.20-16 before installing the  driver
[06:30] <DJ-_-> raymondjoth: file--->volume control
[06:30] <pike_> Biso: it wont speed things up unless you are doing *very* intensive stuff. swap for me is mostly useful because when my computer slows down i know its using swap and something is wrong :)
[06:31] <PriceChild> tanaka, upgrade first...
[06:31] <pike_> Biso: that is assuming you have a newer computer. if older comp yes a good deal of swap is important
[06:31] <Biso> Thank you Man
[06:31] <PriceChild> dazed||lap, I don't know what to suggest sorry. You're on your own for being very late I'm afraid... unless you can find a mirror that still has the packages on
[06:32] <ubuntu__> Hi
[06:32] <Perun> re
[06:32] <dazed||lap> PriceChild, im not very late...i have been keeping up just not on my laptop...anyway i figured it out by skipping over breezy and going to the next on the list dapper and i will do each on individually from there on out
[06:32] <ubuntu__> I need some help/advice with my lilo, anyone .... ?
[06:32] <PriceChild> dazed||lap, you are late... hoary support ended over a year ago
[06:32] <Perun> it is possible to use pinning with adept in kubuntu? (like with apt in debian)
[06:33] <ubuntu__> I just reinstaled windows xp and I cannot make ubuntu tu boot
[06:33] <soundray> dazed||lap: it's a waste of time. Just back up your data and do a fresh feisty install
[06:33] <PriceChild> or over 6 months.. i can't remember
[06:33] <PriceChild> still late
[06:33] <pike_> !mbr| ubuntu__
[06:33] <raymondjtoth> dk got it
[06:33] <ubuntu__> !mbr| ubuntu__
[06:33] <DJ-_-> !mbr | ubuntu__
[06:33] <ubotu> ubuntu__: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[06:33] <ubuntu__> but I have lilo
[06:34] <pike_> lol
[06:34] <Biso> Is the swap is Primary?
[06:34] <pike_> Biso: doesnt really matter
[06:34] <ubuntu__> I don`t have floppy .....
[06:34] <kdubois> nomexous, you're in a sticky situation. 3d rendering is working, but your games dont display properly... any other symptoms that might help us think about the problem?
[06:34] <pike_> Biso: bear in mind you can only have so many primary partitions so you might want it to be logical
[06:34] <DJ-_-> pike_: is the hostname adding in /etc/hosts really helpful?
[06:35] <dazed||lap> soundray, i am too lazy to back up everything...im mainly doing the upgrade so i can back up my shit on my pc
[06:35] <PriceChild> Biso, why aren't you letting it do it all for you?
[06:35] <Brindley> Can anyone recommend a good ftp client?
[06:35] <soundray> dazed||lap: please use professional language in this channel
[06:35] <Biso> i will now
[06:35] <DJ-_-> dazed||lap: watch ya language man
[06:35] <dazed||lap> soundray, as of right now i cant use my wifi card until i upgrade a few times then i can get on the network to back it up
[06:35] <Biso> I want to do the right
[06:35] <dazed||lap> this channel has changed since i last needed help rofl
[06:35] <pike_> DJ-_-: yeah i always have 127.0.0.1 hostname.domain gnome should complain though if it isnt there id think
[06:36] <soundray> dazed||lap: boot from a live CD to do your backup
[06:36] <BugeyeD> anyone what's the _correct_ place to be looking for ubuntu/xen information? stuff seems to be spread all over the place, some of which conflicts with each other.
[06:36] <ubuntu__> Fatal: raid_setup: stat("/dev/sda") <-- this is the error I got when i want to reinstall lilo in /dev/sda`s mbr
[06:36] <DJ-_-> pike_ what about the 127.0.0.1 hostname urpcname
[06:36] <crolle17> does somebody know about audacity?
[06:36] <cotyrothery> can someone tell me a program for extracting rar files
[06:36] <dazed||lap> soundray, my laptop overheats real bad when i use too many things at once running an install cd or live cd creates too much heat
[06:36] <ToddEDM2> get a fan on it
[06:36] <DJ-_-> pike_: give that a try...it really helped me :D
[06:36] <Veinor> cotyrothery: unrar

[06:37] <ubuntu__> !mbr| ubuntu__
[06:37] <soundray> dazed||lap: get a large pan from the kitchen with a flat bottom. Put it on your table, bottom up and rest the laptop on it.
[06:37] <nomexous> kdubois: hold on, i lost it
[06:37] <DJ-_-> ubuntu__: thats a command in wrong syntax
[06:37] <dazed||lap> soundray, is what i am doing with ice underneath it and i did extensive cleaning of the heatsink and fans today just to get it running
[06:38] <ubuntu__> ?
[06:38] <cotyrothery> thanks
[06:38] <DJ-_-> ubuntu: if you really want that try this "!mbr | ubuntu__"
[06:38] <ubuntu__> I don`t understand DJ-_-
[06:38] <DJ-_-> but wont list lilo
[06:38] <dazed||lap> soundray, it was a free hp laptop and i haven't used it in years im glad it still turns on

[06:38] <sipior> dazed||lap: if the heat is really a problem, best to remove the drive and plug it in elsewhere for backups
[06:38] <ubuntu__> ok, I`ll try
[06:38] <ubuntu__> but I have lilo
[06:38] <null_kuhl_> guys plz help , after a long mess with ustart and splashy i uninstalled splashy and got everything back to default its fine now except that when booting at the very end of the progress bar it gets stuck there then goes to the console and print this : Starting Gnome Display manager.../etc/rc2.d/S13gdm: 106: /etc/init.d/usplash: not found .. Please Help me :(
[06:38] <ubuntu__> i removed Grub
[06:38] <Waak> PriceChild: still around?
[06:38] <Paddy_EIRE> is it normal for "vino-server" to be running or sleeping rather in the background? in other words is it necessary for it to be running at all
[06:38] <nomexous> kdubois: i googled it, but didn't get anything meaningful
[06:38] <DJ-_-> ubuntu__: sorry bro, but i just switched to linux 3 days back
[06:38] <dazed||lap> its not a problem right now until i have to start running cd's and shit which blow more hot air around on my mobo
[06:38] <PriceChild> Waak, hey
[06:39] <dazed||lap> excuse my language!
[06:39] <simplyw00x> Paddy_EIRE: If you have desktop sharing enabled, then yes
[06:39] <ubuntu__> ok DJ-_- , thanx
[06:39] <crolle17> or maybe does somedoy know another good tool for recording?
[06:39] <simplyw00x> Paddy_EIRE: Otherwise, no
[06:39] <Waak> PriceChild: some progress: running konqueror as root gives me some good logs in stdout
[06:39] <Waak> it looks like kdecore (KLibLoader): WARNING: KLibrary: /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8: undefined symbol: OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf
[06:39] <sipior> dazed||lap: what i mean is, why not remove the drive, and plug it in elsewhere to do the backup? then there are no cds running &cet...
[06:39] <Waak> and there's more of that
[06:39] <Paddy_EIRE> simplyw00x, If I was to disable desktop sharing how would I go about that
[06:39] <pike_> ubuntu__: if your using lilo just boot from livecd and mount the ubuntu partition then chroot /mnt/partition/ and run lilo   bear in mind i havent used lilo this millenia so that might be wrong
[06:39] <dazed||lap> sipior, i dont have another laptop to plug the drive into...
[06:39] <soundray> dazed||lap: show some consideration for people who want or need to use this channel in some professional capacity please.
[06:40] <ubuntu__> I just did....
[06:40] <simplyw00x> Paddy_EIRE: System/Preferences/remote Desktop#

[06:40] <dazed||lap> soundray, i have been using this channel before you have even heard of linux please lay off my back i said excuse my language
[06:40] <dazed||lap> it was an accident
[06:40] <Paddy_EIRE> simplyw00x, nice one, if I wanted this service to end right now what the best way "sudo
[06:41] <pike_> ubuntu__: grub might be the way to go. itll also mean we can support you here better if there is a problem
[06:41] <soundray> dazed||lap: go on just a little longer and you'll get yourself kicked.
[06:41] <null_kuhl_> pike_: ?
[06:41] <dazed||lap> soundray, doing what?
[06:41] <ubuntu__> ok
[06:41] <simplyw00x> Paddy_EIRE: Erm. killall vino-server?
[06:41] <sipior> soundray: dazed||lap : enough
[06:41] <Paddy_EIRE> simplyw00x, oops, I mean "sudo killall vino-server" ?
[06:41] <Paddy_EIRE> simplyw00x, :)
[06:41] <ubuntu__> what can i do to put grub on then ?
[06:41] <simplyw00x> Paddy_EIRE: that might work
[06:41] <DJ-_-> null_kuhl_: startx
[06:41] <kdubois> nomexous, try 'sudo killall esd' and then try to run the game
[06:41] <ubuntu__> pike_,  what can i do to put grub on then ?
[06:41] <simplyw00x> Paddy_EIRE: Though there's no reason that changing the preference wouldn't kill the server
[06:42] <pike_> null_kuhl_: try this from recovery: chmod +x /etc/init.d/usplash;update-rc.d -f usplash defaults
[06:42] <gtfx> is there anything special that one have to do in ATI driver installation?
[06:42] <pike_> ubuntu__: follow the !mbr link
[06:42] <null_kuhl_> pike_: after i select recovery mode wat shud i do then? i mean will i end up with a console to paste in it this^^ or wat ,, never used recovery before
[06:43] <ubuntu__> ok pike_ I`ll try
[06:43] <ubuntu__> thanks
[06:43] <Paddy_EIRE> simplyw00x, yeah but I have noticed it takes a restart for certain things, although on this occasion killall was not required
[06:43] <nomexous> kdubois: still nothing. what was that supposed to do?
[06:43] <pike_> null_kuhl_: its a single user shell so youll basiclly be root at a prompt#  yeah just type that in and turn comp off/backon
[06:44] <Waak> Any amd64 users in here?
[06:44] <Tom47> Waak thats new drag n drop

[06:44] <cwillu> from the terminal, how do I show the target of a symlink (just the target, no other information)
[06:45] <Waak> cwillu, you don't like ls -l?

[06:45] <Beamoo> is Ubuntu linux x32 or x64?
[06:45] <Beamoo> trying to download Nvidia drivers
[06:45] <aliasrush> Has anyone used mondoarchive with feisty?
[06:45] <pike_> Beamoo: 32 bit
[06:45] <Beamoo> thx
[06:45] <pike_> Beamoo: unless you specifically install 64
[06:46] <soundray> Beamoo: before you continue...
[06:46] <Beamoo> there is no 32 bit :S
[06:46] <Coyote{x}_> I forgot the approved update command?
[06:46] <soundray> !nvidia > Beamoo, please read ubotu's private message
[06:46] <BugeyeD> Waak: amd64 here, only on server-side
[06:46] <DJ-_-> brb
[06:46] <Coyote{x}_> updatemanager-C or something like that?
[06:46] <lutz_> hi all! i have a problem with adobe reader: it doesn't start up correctly anymore, but there is a process acroread which consumes 100% cpu. i can't even uninstall it since it doesn't appear in the package list in synaptic.
[06:46] <Waak> BugeyeD: so you're not using browsers etc?
[06:46] <effie_jayx> If I get hdc failure it is the cd rom right?
[06:46] <Beamoo> in the Nvidia driver page there are only for linux x64 or linux x 86
[06:46] <cwillu> Waak, for the record, 'readlink' :p
[06:47] <effie_jayx> when installing
[06:47] <kdubois> nomexous, it looks like x can't find the right extension....
[06:47] <Waak> BugeyeD: i'm having trouble with libcrypto etc.  I think.  Cross browser problems trying to get to authenticated sites
[06:47] <BugeyeD> Waak: nope, i have osx and freebsd for that. :)
[06:47] <Waak> BugeyeD: also problems with standalone secure logins
[06:47] <cwillu> effie_jayx, probably;
[06:47] <bastid_raZor> 86 == 32 bit
[06:47] <soundray> Beamoo: did you get the private message?
[06:47] <Waak> BugyeD: welp, thanks anyway
[06:47] <DJ-_-> will ubuntu server edition run on 64megs?
[06:47] <kdubois> nomexous, try http://forum.americasarmy.com/viewtopic.php?t=148628&view=next
[06:47] <pike_> lutz_: you might ls -a ~    and see if adobe puts a .directory in your home then rm -fr ~/.directoryname  and retry
[06:48] <cwillu> effie_jayx, there's a boot option for the cd that turns off dma, that'll usually fix it (only a problem on the live cd in my experience), although you'll have to enable dma after it's installed or the system will be sloooooow
[06:48] <BugeyeD> Waak: sry, only here to see if anyone is clueful about 64-bit xen installations. so far, no go.
[06:48] <soundray> DJ-_-: I think it will, but it's tight
[06:48] <cwillu> effie_jayx, I _think_ it's hdc=nodma
[06:48] <pike_> DJ-_-: yeah. you can even have a gui and flux running on that pretty well
[06:48] <JediMaster> am I right in thinking that the 64bit version of ubuntu can't install the 32bit binary debs?
[06:48] <DJ-_-> or am i better off with xubuntu CLI system
[06:48] <PriceChild> JediMaster, correct... for now :)
[06:48] <cwillu> JediMaster, yep
[06:49] <JediMaster> doh, think I need a reinstall then lol
[06:49] <DJ-_-> soundray_: or am i better off with xubuntu CLI system
[06:49] <DJ-_-> pike: thx
[06:49] <soundray> DJ-_-: xubuntu will need more RAM than a CLI server installation
[06:49] <lutz_> pike_: there is no .directory  in my home...
[06:49] <kdubois> JediMaster, probably. most the world's still 32 bit people....
[06:49] <BugeyeD> DJ-_-: any 'buntu will work; just use fluxbox as your wm
[06:49] <DJ-_-> soundray_: xubuntu command line only i mean, the one that comes with the alternate cd
[06:50] <DJ-_-> BugeyeD; i m planning on running some servers without GUI :D
[06:50] <soundray> DJ-_-: oops, I saw it just now...
[06:50] <effie_jayx> the hardest thing is installing on a computer that has 96 mges ram
[06:50] <effie_jayx> pentium II 300 mhz
[06:50] <DJ-_-> soundray: which is better, for a server?
[06:50] <BugeyeD> DJ-_-: of course if you don't need any X, just disable X. server install doesn't install the cruft, so there's less to update.
[06:50] <DJ-_-> BugeyeD: sure will man thx
[06:50] <pike_> lutz_: then i dunno. i know nothing about adobe reader i usually use one of the open viewers sorry
[06:51] <sipior> effie_jayx: ubuntu is probably not the best choice for that machine :)
[06:51] <soundray> DJ-_-: xubuntu and ubuntu differ only in the graphical interface, so the server installations from either alternate CD will be the same.
[06:51] <yimmmy_> were do i go for copiz again?
[06:51] <yimmmy_> i got disconnected
[06:51] <fivetwentysix> If i feel my distro build is broken, what should I do?
[06:51] <nomexous> kdubois: still doesn't work. and this happens in games on wine, too
[06:51] <pike_> yimmmy_: /j #ubuntu-effects
[06:51] <BugeyeD> DJ-_-: just realize that not all hardware will run -server ... some cpus don't like the pae and other stuff compiled into the kernel (namely the epia boards)
[06:51] <DJ-_-> soundray: ok, cuz i heard someone saying the ubuntu server was better, thx anyway
[06:51] <ubuntu__> 10x ! I`ll give it a try
[06:51] <effie_jayx> sipior,  yep...
[06:51] <yimmmy_> thansk
[06:51] <lutz_> pike_: where can i choose the default app for pdfs (so to change from adobe reader to an oss reader)?
[06:51] <DJ-_-> BugeyeD: i think a Dell Gx200 can take that
[06:52] <root__> hey
[06:52] <Knowledge> Good GOD!...I haven't ever seen this many people in an IRC channel before
[06:52] <root__> pike_: u still there ?
[06:52] <TheCougar> any one know of a tablet PC that is 100% compatible with ubuntu?
[06:52] <kdubois> nomexous, in wine, does it have the  same error?
[06:52] <pike_> lutz_: i think in gnome you can do a right click and open with but.. im not too familiar with gnome/nautilus
[06:52] <effie_jayx> Knowledge,  we grow bigger and bigger after every release
[06:52] <ivan> lutz_, right click a file in gnome, select open with and choose default app
[06:52] <pike_> root__: y
[06:52] <DJ-_-> Knowledge: welcome to ubuntu :D
[06:52] <SchighSchagh> /disconnect
[06:52] <Beamoo> Hey guys, I ran the restricted driver thingy and after that it says "In order for this computer to function properly Ubuntu may be using driver software that cannot be supported"
[06:52] <Knowledge> effie_jayx: that's awesome, I need to get back into linux man, it's been calling me
[06:52] <nomexous> kdubois: no
[06:52] <root__> pike_: am nullkuhl , from recovery now after started x , i did wat u told me it came up saying no such file /directory lol
[06:52] <lutz_> thanks, pike_ and ivan
[06:52] <Knowledge> DJ-_-: thank you
[06:53] <DJ-_-> soundray BugeyeD pike_: thx for the help...
[06:53] <DJ-_-> Knowledge: your welcome
[06:53] <Beamoo> And it shows the "Nvidia accelerated graaphics driver "in use"
[06:53] <ivan> lutz_, no prob
[06:53] <pike_> root__: ls /etc/init.d/  shows no usplash?
[06:53] <Knowledge> I borrowed my cousin's PS3 since he's not using it (at all!) to install ubuntu on it, because nalioth told me it could be done.
[06:53] <soundray> Beamoo: so you've set it up successfully
[06:53] <root__> pike_: no
[06:53] <JuJuBee> !ati
[06:53] <Moduliz0r> "What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
[06:53] <Moduliz0r> kernel? " What shall I put?
[06:53] <Knowledge> is there a channel for that?
[06:53] <root__> lol thats why then it fails at booting right ?
[06:54] <nalioth> !tell Moduliz0r about headers
[06:54] <Tom47> Beamoo it simply means its closed source and ubuntu cannot provide support to problems arising from its intrnals
[06:54] <root__> u tried giving it accces but idoesnt even exist
[06:54] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:54] <pike_> root__: try a apt-get install usplash
[06:54] <slowz> gtkBitchX-1.1-final+ by panasync - Linux 2.6.20-15-generic
[06:54] <root__> am i right pike_?
[06:54] <pike_> root__: yeah :)
[06:54] <Beamoo> Tom47 so in other words, my driver works?
[06:54] <root__> already installed i think but let me try
[06:54] <ferret> echo fee $N
[06:54] <Tom47> Beamooo yes its fine
[06:54] <root__> already installed pike_ it says
[06:54] <Beamoo> sweet
[06:54] <Moduliz0r> thanks
[06:55] <Moduliz0r> where were the headers installed to?
[06:55] <kdubois> nomexous, i'm out of ideas... go ask at OpenGL. they might have an answer for you...
[06:55] <pike_> root__: if already installed do dpkg-reconfigure usplash   if that doesnt work i guess apt-get remove usplash;apt-get install usplash
[06:55] <DJ-_-> !LAMP
[06:55] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL.

[06:55] <nomexous> kdubois: thanks for your help
[06:55] <Moduliz0r> VMware says the default is /usr/src/linux/include but that isn't where it is
[06:56] <pike_> Moduliz0r: they prob just need to be installed. i dont think they are by default
[06:56] <soundray> Moduliz0r: linux-headers-2.6.20-16-generic if you're on feisty and have the linux-headers-generic package installed
[06:56] <Moduliz0r> no I just installed them
[06:56] <soundray> Moduliz0r: sorry, /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.20-16-generic
[06:56] <ivan> Moduliz0r, /usr/src/linux-headears-version ?
[06:56] <Moduliz0r> ok thanks
[06:56] <Moduliz0r> linux-headers-2.6.20-16-lowlatency
[06:57] <Moduliz0r> The path "/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.20-16-lowlatency" is an existing
[06:57] <Moduliz0r> directory, but it does not contain a "linux" subdirectory as expected.
[06:57] <Skywalker1234> sorry to interrupt but can anybody help me out at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=470674
[06:57] <DJ-_-> ok, now I am confused, I have a xubuntu CLI already installed, when someone told me to get ubuntu server edition, should i reinstall that or start setting up the servers from the existing xubuntu CLI
[06:57] <soundray> DJ-_-: either way will work, so choose what's less effort
[06:58] <Moduliz0r> any ideas?
[06:58] <pike_> DJ-_-: you did a server install with an xubuntu cd?
[06:58] <Snowbody> Anyone else have screen brightness issues?
[06:58] <DJ-_-> pike_: no xubuntu alternate cd...i did a CLI install
[06:58] <soundray> Moduliz0r: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-lowlatency
[06:58] <pike_> DJ-_-: well i guess they changed the name. it should be the same thing id think
[06:58] <BugeyeD> DJ-_-: use what you have; it's basically all the same.
[06:58] <DJ-_-> pike_: performance will be better in xubuntu CLI or ubuntu server?
[06:58] <Moduliz0r> soundray: I did, but I dont know where they are
[06:58] <fivetwentysix> Ubuntu treats me well :-)

[06:59] <Beamoo> What is the best media player for ubuntu?
[06:59] <Moduliz0r> ah no need, needed /include on the end

[06:59] <ubotu> Beamoo: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.

[07:00] <tanaka> i'll check bye
[07:00] <Beamoo> Ubotu: Yeah thats true well what i meant was, i need a good media player :P
[07:00] <Beamoo> is xmms good?
[07:00] <soundray> !player | Beamoo

[07:01] <Beamoo> Il go with VLc
[07:01] <fivetwentysix> Beamoo use amarok!
[07:01] <Beamoo> and xmms
[07:01] <pike_> Beamoo: if ya got the ram to spare try some of the others out though
[07:01] <Veinor> pike_ don't you mean hard drive space?
[07:01] <simplyw00x> for gnome it's far and away rhythmbox
[07:01] <BugeyeD> DJ-_-: you probably won't see any difference with your rig between the two. if you want to play/test the difference, just install and boot another kernel. example: linux-image-server - Linux kernel image on Server Equipment
[07:02] <Beamoo> But is there a search function in xmms ?
[07:02] <pike_> Veinor: for amarok i mean ram :)
[07:02] <fivetwentysix> Beamoo
[07:02] <Veinor> amarok: heh.
[07:02] <fivetwentysix> use amarok!
[07:02] <Beamoo> I've got 1 GB of Ram
[07:02] <BugeyeD> rambus? eww.
[07:02] <fivetwentysix> If you have mysql installed
[07:02] <fivetwentysix> amarok is like godly
[07:02] <pike_> Beamoo: try amarok if only to make fivetwentysix happy
[07:02] <void^> yes, amarok definitely needs mysql.
[07:02] <Jimmey> fivetwentysix, why?
[07:03] <gday> amarok doesn't depend on mysql, does it?
[07:03] <fivetwentysix> I got like 3000 songs and finding music is really fast :-)
[07:03] <DJ-_-> BugeyeD: ok i will come for help with that if i want to see a difference
[07:03] <sipior> no, i think it can use sqlite as well
[07:03] <Skywalker1234> sorry to interrupt but can anybody help me out at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=470674
[07:03] <void^> no, but if you can choose between a snail and a jaguar, pick the jaguar
[07:03] <ToddEDM2> how the heck can i get these nvidia drivers installed
[07:03] <fivetwentysix> gday, you could use it to record your music library
[07:03] <Skywalker1234> I'm quite in need of some assistance

[07:03] <ubotu> ToddEDM2: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:03] <Skywalker1234> or should i ask here instead
[07:03] <Jimmey> Skywalker1234, just ask
[07:04] <pike_> ToddEDM2: come back if you run into problems
[07:04] <gday> fivetwentysix, and is it significantly slower without such a backend then?
[07:04] <ToddEDM2> i will thx
[07:04] <nuked_omen> hi
[07:04] <fivetwentysix> gday, no idea
[07:04] <Jimmey> Skywalker1234, that thread is a joke.
[07:04] <nuked_omen> does anyone else have some serious issues with java in ubuntu 7.04?
[07:04] <haroldinCT> have they fixed the pcmcia wireless on fiesty install cd?
[07:04] <fivetwentysix> i have 2745 songs and it runs fast
[07:04] <Skywalker1234> I have an old dBase program with a corresponding database, i would like to convert to a Ubuntu usable program
[07:04] <Shankysv87> !seen sakura
[07:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about seen sakura - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:04] <Skywalker1234> I'm sorry but was it really a joke?
[07:05] <void^> it's significantly faster with mysql. depends on the size of your library, of course. i'd say a proper db backend is required if you have >10000 songs
[07:05] <nuked_omen> !java

[07:05] <Shankysv87> does anyone know if yahoo mail is able to be used by evolution?
[07:05] <Skywalker1234> thats not the point
[07:05] <gday> fivetwentysix, sounds similar to rhythmbox actually :)
[07:05] <sipior> sat1: sure, google for network device bonding
[07:05] <Skywalker1234> its the dBase thing
[07:05] <sat1> is it possible?
[07:05] <fivetwentysix> Jmmey: you're good

[07:06] <fivetwentysix> Jimmey: However I'm using 950mb of ram right now as we speak
[07:06] <pike_> can someone pastebin their usplash file from init.d/ for nullkuhl ?
[07:06] <Assassin`> good afternoon
[07:06] <sipior> sat1: but you have two adsl phone lines coming into your house?
[07:06] <sat1> yea
[07:07] <Azu1> why 2?
[07:07] <nullkuhl> pike_:  i remember i made splashy start within initramfs would that have caused all this ??
[07:07] <Shankysv87> does anyone know if evolution is able to do yahoo mail also?
[07:07] <pike_> nullkuhl: you really want it that badly?
[07:07] <Jimmey> fivetwentysix, I knew the answer - That was the question he asked..
[07:07] <fivetwentysix> Damn beryl uses 160mb of ram
[07:07] <nullkuhl> yesss i cant boot man
[07:07] <pike_> nullkuhl: might ask somone else i have very little exp with that stuff
[07:07] <nullkuhl> want wat ? splashy  ?? noo noo i already uninstalled it
[07:08] <nullkuhl> if i get the pastebin for splashy

[07:09] <rabby_> although i installed the foomatics driver for my brother hl1250 printer, it only prints strange letters etc. :(
[07:09] <sipior> Skywalker1234: are you asking if you can convert the actual database to something else?
[07:09] <Skywalker1234> something usable in linux
[07:09] <Azu1> why is everyone trying to unplug from windows
[07:09] <Skywalker1234> because that dBase III / IV is currently running in WinME
[07:09] <jester626> morning all, I have a small network set up at my house. I have SAMBA configured on one of the machines and all of that is working fine.

[07:10] <sipior> Skywalker1234: well, you could have a go running it under wine, or possibly VMWare

[07:11] <Skywalker1234> but in a business, wine is ok?
[07:11] <Azu1> pike_: sorry what's drm?
[07:11] <Azu1> digital rights something?
[07:11] <sipior> Skywalker1234: sure, why not?
[07:11] <fivetwentysix> tim167 restore your x config file
[07:11] <benzs_s> management
[07:11] <tat_> hello, i have trouble to start the xserver after update
[07:11] <IdleOne> Beamoo, type amarok
[07:12] <_caolan_> Hi, I've been trying to use gnome-pilot to sync my palm pilot with evolution but I get the following error:
[07:12] <pike_> Azu1: yeah /join #ubuntu-offtopic there are a few of us in there
[07:12] <_caolan_> "Failed to connect using device 'Cradle', on port '/dev/pilot'. Check your configuration, as you requested old-style usbseriel 'ttyUSB' syncing, but do not have the usbserial 'visor' kernel module loaded. You may need to select a 'usb:' device."
[07:12] <Skywalker1234> ok
[07:12] <tat_> i get allwayes "could not open default cursor font 'cursor'"
[07:12] <DJ-_-> umm....where is apache2's default root directory located
[07:12] <Skywalker1234> but how about the conversion bit?
[07:12] <captainigloo> hi all; I have some issues whan I try to debootstrap feisty, when i do apt-get install ubuntu-standard in chroot apt fails when trying to install "at"
[07:12] <tim167> fivetwentysix: ok, i hope restricted manager made a backup...
[07:12] <Skywalker1234> there's been many suggestions about MySQL
[07:12] <fivetwentysix> tim167: In terminal cd /etc/X11
[07:12] <sipior> Skywalker1234: there are other database options in linux of course, so learn an interface to one and have a go at rewriting your app
[07:12] <tat_> but i checked for the cursor font in /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc, and it is there, the fontpath is also set in my xorg.conf
[07:12] <fivetwentysix> tim167 then type ls
[07:13] <fivetwentysix> tim167 you should see a backup of your x.config
[07:13] <tat_> is there maybe a other place where could be an other cursor be defined ?
[07:13] <fivetwentysix> tim167 you should see a backup of your xorg.config*
[07:13] <ToddEDM2> when i enable desktop effects, all i get is a white screen, anyone know why this is happening?
[07:13] <DJ-_-> is there another command to find stuff in linux
[07:13] <tim167> fivetwentysix, i cant even acces a terminal!, its goes on to trying to boot and after a while i get 'input not supported' cant do ctrl+alt+F1 even
[07:14] <nelson> How do I ask a FAQ?  Should I read the FAQ first to make sure it's a FAQ and then ask it?
[07:14] <benzs_s> anyone here have any experience with wine?
[07:14] <sipior> ToddEDM2: you might see if the line "Option          "AddARGBGLXVisuals"     "True" appears in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:14] <Skywalker1234> sipior: thanks!
[07:14] <IdleOne> nelson, ask your question
[07:14] <sipior> ToddEDM2: but leave off that first quotation mark :)
[07:14] <nelson> :)
[07:14] <sipior> Skywalker1234: good luck
[07:15] <_caolan_> Hi, I've been trying to use gnome-pilot to sync my palm pilot with evolution but I get the following error:

[07:15] <Beamoo> what command should i use to run Amaraok in the terminal?
[07:15] <fivetwentysix> tim167: Wow really?
[07:15] <trelayne> hi all, when launching the users-admin tool (to add users/group) it seems to take a while to finish loading.. anyone know why?
[07:15] <knoppix> DOES ANYBODY KNOW shipit.ubuntu.com?
[07:15] <Azu1> amarok
[07:15] <Azu1> knoppix: i just did, thank you
[07:15] <fivetwentysix> tim167: normally X should fail to start up and take you to a console
[07:15] <DBlue> How to install TTF fonts in UBUNTU
[07:15] <IdleOne> _caolan_, seems you need to load a module called " visor " as it says in the errror
[07:15] <ToddEDM2> knoppix.. i do
[07:15] <benzs_s> is there any reason why wine would not create /.wine after installation (and yeah i know it ought to be invisible)
[07:15] <Shankysv87> is there anything, anywhere i can find out how to get yahoo mail in evolution?
[07:15] <_caolan_> IdleOne: how do I do that?
[07:15] <sipior> DBlue: for your own use, easiest is just to drop them in a .fonts directory in your home
[07:16] <knoppix> Azu1, does it work?
[07:16] <haroldinCT> I want to replace dapper with feisty on my laptop.  Has anyone fixed the pcmcia / wireless on the feisty install CD yet?
[07:16] <tim167> fivetwentysix, yesterday i had the same but someone told me it was because i used Envy, but now with restricted manager same problem...
[07:16] <IdleOne> _caolan_, I dont know sorry
[07:16] <DBlue> And where is that?
[07:16] <GigaClon> Shankysv87, you need to enable POP mail delivery at yahoo
[07:16] <Shankysv87> is that it?
[07:16] <_caolan_> IdleOne: thanks for the tip anyway, I'll rephrase my question...
[07:16] <fivetwentysix> tim167: Not sure what to do since your solution may differ from mine because i use Nvidia products
[07:16] <Shankysv87> because hotmail was a lot tougher
[07:16] <GigaClon> they will give you the information that you plug into Evolution
[07:16] <DBlue> I'm in a hurry, tell where is .fonts?
[07:17] <Shankysv87> ok, thank you
[07:17] <knoppix> ToddEDM2, does it work?
[07:17] <IdleOne> _caolan_, I believe it involves re-compiling the kernel with the module enabled
[07:17] <savetheWorld> I'm too rushed to answer..........
[07:17] <Azu1> knoppix: i don't know.. you were asking if we know about it
[07:17] <DJ-_-> can anyone get me the output of http://www.samad909.info
[07:17] <Eric_Jardas> I have made a typo and made a file read-only to user and to root...Is there a way to get permission to change it as root ?
[07:17] <GigaClon> DBlue, you have to enable view of Hidden files
[07:17] <savetheWorld> DJ-_-: and a ham sandwich too.
[07:17] <nullkuhl> guys how to pastebin
[07:17] <DBlue> And then
[07:17] <orangey> openwengo
[07:17] <fivetwentysix> tim167 So there's no way you can get into terminal?
[07:17] <nullkuhl> can anyone write pastebin url
[07:17] <savetheWorld> www.pastebin.ca
[07:17] <IdleOne> !paste | nullkuhl
[07:17] <ubotu> nullkuhl: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:17] <savetheWorld> !pastebin
[07:17] <DJ-_-> savetheWorld: na, its my domain, just setup a CLI server, want to see whther it is net accessible too :D
[07:18] <GigaClon> !sudo > Eric_Jardas
[07:18] <Azu1> knoppix: why not download the image?
[07:18] <savetheWorld> DJ-_-: oh you want some one to try and see if it works?
[07:18] <DJ-_-> ya
[07:18] <knoppix> Azu1, I use dial-up
[07:18] <savetheWorld> Then say that. :-)
[07:18] <Journeyman>  anytime I play a video in youtube it uses almost all the CPu and lags really bad
[07:18] <DJ-_-> well meant so :p
[07:18] <Eric_Jardas> GigaClon, I made a file permission for root also read-only
[07:18] <DBlue> I still can't find the font
[07:18] <DBlue> s
[07:18] <qaldune> journeyman are you using flash plugin last version?
[07:19] <IdleOne> knoppix, dialup is faster then waiting 4-6 weeks for shippit
[07:19] <ToddEDM2> sip
[07:19] <ToddEDM2> sipior .... i dont see anything like that in xorg
[07:19] <IdleOne> DJ-_-, site under construction
[07:19] <sipior> ToddEDM2: then add that line, and restart X
[07:19] <gday> IdleOne, I never have to wait for more than 2~2.5 weeks :)
[07:19] <DJ-_-> IdleOne: thx man
[07:19] <Beamoo> amarok doesnt want to play my mp3 files :S
[07:19] <Azu1> knoppix: so?
[07:19] <IdleOne> gday, me either but it could take that long
[07:19] <bionoid> Hi. Does anyone know of a good video editor for linux? I need to work with non-standard resolutions (2.5:1) and have source material mostly in JPEG and a few movie clips. I've looked at Cinelerra and Kino but neither work well with 2.5:1 or large collections of photos (non-sequential). Alternatively a "regular slideshow program" with video support (which is really what I need). I used to do this with Sony Vegas on windows - anything like that wou
[07:19] <ToddEDM2> knoppix, it takes about a week or so
[07:19] <Azu1> knoppix: it'll take about a week
[07:20] <DJ-_-> lol i got so much access now....4 ppl already tried :D
[07:20] <Eric_Jardas> I have made a typo and made a file read-only to user and to root...Is there a way to get permission to change it as root ?
[07:20] <DJ-_-> log*
[07:20] <ToddEDM2> about 10 days
[07:20] <Veinor> If I were to get a new MP3 player, what would be a good one for maximum compatibility with Ubuntu?
[07:20] <knoppix> i don't have much cash
[07:20] <DBlue> Where is .fonts
[07:20] <ToddEDM2> i got about 15 disks from shipit
[07:20] <Yasumoto> bionoid: have you looked at ubuntu studio? http://ubuntustudio.org/
[07:20] <qaldune> veinor i just going to ask that
[07:20] <qaldune> i was*
[07:21] <aMMuNix> I've got a .sh file, I wanna create a launcher to "Run" it (not run in terminal, not display, just run)
[07:21] <ToddEDM2> free
[07:21] <aliasrush> anyone familiar with mondoarchive on ubuntu?
[07:21] <IdleOne> bionoid, join #ubuntustudio they can help
[07:21] <knoppix> i don't like ubuntu, so i am waiting for kubuntu from shipit
[07:21] <IdleOne> knoppix, you already have ubuntu installed?
[07:21] <bionoid> Yasumoto: No never heard of it before now. Thanks
[07:21] <Beamoo> command for remove an application ?
[07:21] <bionoid> IdleOne: Will do thanks
[07:21] <DJ-_-> knoppix: get ubuntu server and do KDE install
[07:21] <Yasumoto> bionoid: no problemo. hopefully that'll help :)
[07:22] <IdleOne> knoppix, if so sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[07:22] <DBlue> Where the hack is the .Fonts directory?
[07:22] <ToddEDM2> get edubuntu and kubuntu from shipit at the same time
[07:22] <Knowledge> Anyone here want to lend a helping hand with Ubuntu on PS3?
[07:22] <sipior> DBlue: i already told you. why are you wasting my time?
[07:22] <erUSUL> DBlue: in your home dir ~/.fonts
[07:22] <Azu1> i don't like KDE
[07:22] <aMMuNix> I've got a .sh file, I wanna create a launcher to "Run" it (not run in terminal, not display, just run)
[07:22] <DBlue> Thanks
[07:22] <Eric_Jardas> I have made a typo and made a file read-only to user and to root...Is there a way to get permission to change it as root ?
[07:22] <Azu1> the best thing i liked in ubuntu was the fact that it adapts gnome by default
[07:22] <Azu1> that's clever
[07:23] <DBlue> It doesn't open
[07:23] <knoppix> yes, i have innstalled ubuntu 6.10 or 6.10 ( i don't remember)
[07:23] <IdleOne> DBlue, linux is case sensitive .fonts and .Fonts are different..in nautilus click on view then click view hidden files. the . in front of a directory makes it invisible
[07:23] <erUSUL> Eric_Jardas: you can change the permissions back with sudo
[07:23] <ToddEDM2> how can i find out what driver im using for my grafx card?
[07:23] <knoppix> but now i have FreeBSD
[07:24] <sipior> ToddEDM2: check the log in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[07:24] <mylogic> ToddEDM2: search for xorg.conf, it should be in there
[07:24] <DJ-_-> uhm...does anyone know of a tool like rdp on cli...that will allow me to login to that and control the CLI
[07:24] <Azu1> knoppix: how is it working for you?
[07:24] <aMMuNix> I've got a .sh file, I wanna create a launcher to "Run" it (not run in terminal, not display, just run)
[07:24] <tanaka> how can i remove the old kernel after installing the new one using dist-upgrade?(the pc booted up with the new kernel)
[07:24] <DBlue> There is not such thing "in"
[07:25] <knoppix> i jast wanted to try it
[07:25] <pike_> DJ-_-: install openssh-server    ssh is a must on servers
[07:25] <DJ-_-> pike_: ok thx i forgot ssh lol
[07:25] <pike_> DJ-_-: use putty from windows machines its imo the best ssh client available on win32
[07:25] <IdleOne> aMMuNix, right click on desktop and click create launcher...
[07:25] <Azu1> knoppix: yeah, and how did you find it?
[07:26] <DJ-_-> pike:_ i switched all to linux :D so i will try ssh dis time :D
[07:26] <knoppix> i found it well
[07:26] <DJ-_-> pike_: *
[07:26] <aMMuNix> IdleOne: I know how to make launchers, but just typing the path of the file won't do, doesn't do a thing, whilst doubleclicking the actual file and choosing Run from the opened dialog works
[07:26] <Azu1> i try to run azureus, it pops up then disappears
[07:26] <Azu1> what's the issuE?
[07:26] <sipior> tanaka: you can search for installed kernel packages via synaptic or whatever, and just remove the old ones. careful, though, to make sure you're really removing the old kernel...
[07:27] <DBlue> Just spear a second and tell me!
[07:27] <Beamoo> How do you remove an application (ex. Amarok) in the terminal
[07:27] <DJ-_-> done....now it is kewl, cuz i control the server without connecting a monitor, keyboard or mouse
[07:28] <pike_> Beamoo: sudo apt-get remove packagename
[07:28] <Eric_Jardas> erUSUL, I can't, I get chmod: changing permissions of `/etc/xinetd.conf': Operation not permitted
[07:28] <Eric_Jardas> I don't have permission as root
[07:28] <DJ-_-> #ubuntu @ rox!!!
[07:29] <rdehler> where is it specified that i can sudo? it's not in /etc/sudoers
[07:29] <erUSUL> Eric_Jardas: 'sudo chmod <whatever> /etc/xinetd.conf' does not work??
[07:29] <Eric_Jardas> nope
[07:29] <sipior> rdehler: yeah it is, but edit using "visudo"
[07:29] <sat1> Once i tried to install Netbeans 5.5 with apt-get It asked for manual download of tar.gz from ..<a link>... i aborted it at that time. And later i installed it from a binary package, I did it successfully. But now i always get the (error)message to download the tar.gz from the same link even if i try to install other packages (not netbeans).Please help!!!
[07:29] <pike_> rdehler: the admin group should be in sudoers file you should be member of admin
[07:30] <rdehler> %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL
[07:30] <rdehler> thx
[07:30] <sat1> I am using apt-get
[07:31] <DBlue> It says ~/fonts not found
[07:31] <erUSUL> Eric_Jardas: ls -al /etc/xinetd.conf
[07:31] <sipior> DBlue: ~/.fonts. note the period. you may have to make the directory yourself. if you're using nautilus, you can just navigate to fonts:///
[07:31] <sipior> i think that still works
[07:32] <Eric_Jardas> erUSUL, -r-------- 1 root root 456 2007-06-10 23:26 /etc/xinetd.conf
[07:32] <z_> I tried installing a package for my printer using dpkg, it failed to install and now it's in some limbo in apt... I can't install or remove anything, because this package keeps bombing dpkg

[07:37] <bkudria> rbs-tito: really? where?
[07:37] <bkudria> rbs-tito: i'm on fiesty
[07:37] <DJ-_-> beni: no such diretory
[07:38] <knoppix> Azu1: did you use FreeBSD?
[07:38] <beni> DJ-_-: let me look again, mom
[07:38] <dazed||lap> vaidas, counter-strike source is a windows application game...you will need a linux applicationl ike cedega or wine to run steam/css
[07:38] <younghacker> what command will bring back my kernel version?
[07:38] <vaidas> dazed||lap, I've installed wine, now what? :)
[07:38] <haggard> younghacker: uname -a
[07:38] <Adlai> hi ben
[07:38] <DJ-_-> beni: ? it says locate: /var/cache/locate/locatedb: No such file or directory
[07:38] <beni> DJ-_-: /etc/Apache2/
[07:38] <dazed||lap> vaidas, im not very framiliar with wine...but i believe you run steam through wine then css through cedega
[07:38] <younghacker> thanks
[07:38] <Azu1> knoppix: no.. but i got a webspace on a server that does
[07:38] <DJ-_-> beni: thx
[07:38] <beni> DJ-_-: in this dir there are the config files
[07:39] <Azu1> knoppix: i use the same commands i use in linux
[07:39] <vaidas> dazed||lap, I've got standalone css, how do I run it?
[07:39] <DJ-_-> thx
[07:39] <rbs-tito> bkudria: Oh right, I can only find PHP5. Odd. Use another repository.
[07:39] <dazed||lap> hmmm let me look real quick
[07:39] <harrisonpowers> hey guys, i'm having trouble getting hardware acceleration working for my video card, it's an 'Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA 900)'.  restricted drivers manager says that i don't need any restricted drivers.  do you guys know what i should do?
[07:39] <beni> vaidas: first "sudo apt-get install wine", then just "wine" in console
[07:39] <the_entropy> hi guys
[07:39] <beni> vaidas: after that install steam using "wine SteamInstall.exe"
[07:39] <the_entropy> i am trying to install ubuntu 7.04 however the liveCD will not boot
[07:40] <Azu1> beni: i wish it was that easy
[07:40] <rbs-tito> the_entropy: More specifically, what happens?
[07:40] <beni> Azu1: For me, it was that easy
[07:40] <Kai-laptop> how do you flush your DHCP cache?
[07:40] <dazed||lap> vaidas, yes just run wine in terminal...but where/how you get a standalone css?
[07:40] <beni> vaidas: you need to install steam first
[07:40] <CheshireViking> Is there a way of getting "File Browser" to show previews of thumbnails on a networked drive, instead of just an icon that it is a photo and the filename.jpg?
[07:40] <beni> and in order to run steam on linux you need wine
[07:40] <erUSUL> Eric_Jardas: look here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25125/
[07:41] <dazed||lap> beni, so you need to install steam through wine first...then css correct?
[07:41] <beni> I'm trying to write a shellscript "foo.sh", i want to echo the stuff which has been piped to my script (e.g. via "echo hello | foo.sh"). How can  I do this?
[07:41] <the_entropy> rbs-tito: i'm getting there :) at the very start it gets stuck on the screen where there is a progress bar looping continually, i switch to a tty and read the following error that repeats every 60s or so
[07:41] <harrisonpowers> go to the steam site and download the windows installer
[07:41] <CheshireViking> forget that, i've found the answer
[07:41] <harrisonpowers> through steam, you download css
[07:41] <erUSUL> Eric_Jardas: something else is broken in your setup... maybe weird permissions in /etc/ itself??
[07:41] <dazed||lap> beni, have you successfully gotten css to work on linux?
[07:41] <vaidas> I saw the loading screen and now I see a black screen with the flickering mouse cursor, I can hear the sound that is played then I move the mouse over options in the menu
[07:41] <the_entropy> rbs-tito: Buffer I/O error on device FD0, logical block 0
[07:41] <beni> dazed||lap: just download steam installer .exe file and then run it via wine. Steam will install CSS
[07:41] <knoppix> Azu1: what distribution of linux do you prefer?
[07:41] <dazed||lap> beni, good to know thanks
[07:41] <beni> dazed||lap: I'm playing 1.6 successfully on linux

[07:42] <Azu1> knoppix: no one actually
[07:42] <bkudria> rbs-tito: what do you mean, by another repo?  i need a semi-official version, with at least security updates
[07:42] <dazed||lap> beni, that is awesome...last time i tried (years ago) i couldnt get it to work
[07:42] <bkudria> rbs-tito: with security over officialness
[07:42] <Eric_Jardas> erUSUL, nothing isn't broken, i just set the wrong permission and makde it read only to everyone
[07:42] <Azu1> knoppix: i tried a couple.. they suck.. but ubuntu was best of the worst
[07:42] <beni> dazed||lap: I dont have CSS, but it should work the same way. I got nvidia graphics card this makes it a lot easier
[07:42] <dazed||lap> beni, yeah they run the same way...thats great im going to do it right now
[07:42] <beni> dazed||lap: yes i tried it on SUSE 10 before and it didtn work, but on ubuntu it worked like a charm

[07:46] <erUSUL> Eric_Jardas: it seems that you do not need/want my help. Good luck (btw i recomend you to read a basic tutorial on file/dir permisions chmod and chown in unix/linux)
[07:46] <Azu1> Ve0: why are you saying that in other languages?

[07:48] <Ve0> pike_ how can i fix it?

[07:48] <knoppix> Azu1: why ?
[07:48] <DJ-_-> how do i add/edit nameservers with the CLI
[07:48] <tondar> beni: k

[07:51] <bruenig> !justask
[07:51] <knoppix> Juan: hello
[07:51] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:51] <pike_> Ve0: open a terminal and type 'sudo bash ~/Desktop/ati-installer.sh'
[07:51] <Azu1> knoppix: it would still look ugly
[07:51] <Juan> thxs
[07:51] <Juan> very nice to meet you
[07:51] <carloc_> ok
[07:51] <heroinbob> can someone help me out a bit
[07:51] <carloc_> m having sound problems with my computer
[07:51] <DJ-_-> how do i set a visible hostname
[07:51] <bruenig> !anyone | heroinbob
[07:51] <ubotu> heroinbob: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:51] <carloc_> sometimes sound is one sometimes not
[07:51] <Azu1> knoppix: i just don't find it professionally done in terms of graphics
[07:51] <pike_> Ve0: or just sudo bash Desktop/ati-installer.sh  since the term opens in your home directory
[07:51] <carloc_> m using hp dv2000
[07:51] <ddazedd> wine isn't supported for x64 computers?
[07:52] <ddazedd> is there an alternative?
[07:52] <bruenig> ddazedd, no there isn't, you can chroot or chase down the necessary 32 bit libs and link them if you want it
[07:52] <heroinbob> well i needa get my root pASSWORD I CAN GET INTO SYNAPTIC PACKAGE MANAGER AND ALL BUT CANT LOGIN AS ROOT
[07:52] <Juan> how can i install Ubuntu without enter the live CD?
[07:52] <stefg> ddazedd: yeah, runing the 32bit editition of ubuntu :-)
[07:52] <Juan> (in x386)
[07:52] <bruenig> !alternate | Juan
[07:52] <ubotu> Juan: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[07:52] <DJ-_-> pike_: do you know how to set a FQDN/hostname via the CLI
[07:52] <Ve0> pike_ I have a diffirent file... ati-driver-installer-8.28.8.run ... and a have no idia where I can find ati-installer.sh
[07:53] <Juan> ok
[07:53] <Juan> another way?
[07:53] <ddazedd> stefg, bruenig, yeah seems like too much work glad i dual boot :)
[07:53] <roryy> !root | heroinbob
[07:53] <ubotu> heroinbob: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[07:53] <Juan> with the live CD

[07:56] <Azu1> knoppix: i never heard it will die.. if it does, i'll probably switch to fluxbox, xfce and the like
[07:56] <bruenig> Ve0, don't get yourself banned
[07:56] <lutz_> hi! i have a 300gb harddisk and baobab says, there are appr 30gb free space on it. df on the contrary reports only about 7gb, and it is definitely impossible to store more than this, even when there seems to be more space left. how can i get access to this additional space?
[07:56] <Ve0> bruenig how?
[07:56] <alexseif> hi does anybody know a good mp3 player
[07:56] <bruenig> Ve0, behave
[07:56] <tim167> hi stefg, thanks, remember i had this problem with envy yesterday ? well now i redid the install ATI drivers with restricted manager and same problem!
[07:56] <haggard> !best | alexseif
[07:56] <ubotu> alexseif: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[07:56] <bruenig> lutz_, how do you know baobab is right and df is wrong?
[07:57] <heroinbob> like player on pc or for [ortable
[07:57] <DJ-_-> how do i start the squid process
[07:57] <vaidas> for some reason when playing movies, they are blueish, I have ati x1600 and use frglx
[07:57] <DJ-_-> sudo /etc/init.d/squid start?
[07:57] <beni> alexseif: helix banshee, amarok or rhythmbox are nice
[07:57] <Azu1> xmms is nice
[07:57] <beni> alexseif: but i like rhythmbox the most, it is fast an shows covers :)
[07:57] <Andiamo> How can I install new fonts for ubuntu 7.4 ?
[07:58] <bruenig> !fonts | Andiamo
[07:58] <ubotu> Andiamo: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[07:58] <Andiamo> Thanks Man

[07:58] <lutz_> bruenig: gnome-system-monitor reports at the moment appr 20gb _free_ but only appr 5gb _available
[07:58] <Andiamo> Sure
[07:58] <Andiamo> Mercy
[07:58] <knoppix> Azu1: I like xfce
[07:58] <heroinbob> so noone gonna answer me
[07:59] <bruenig> lutz_, so one thing reports 30, one reports 20 and one reports 7

[07:59] <kharloss> i have in my network a tool used by network admin  to alocate "fake IP`s "
[07:59] <Beamoo> My amarok seems to have crashed
[07:59] <stefg> tim167: the ati drivers suck quite hard... known problem. BTW it wasn't necessary to chown xorg.conf. root has UID 0 evreywhere. check the forums, i'm sure you're not the first one with that problem (or replace your card with a nvidia if you can)
[07:59] <heroinbob> is fluxbox compatible on ubuntu fiesty
[07:59] <alexseif> beni: I'm using xmms and its not bad but the output is poor
[07:59] <roryy> !fluxbox | heroinbob
[07:59] <beni> heroinbob: Sorry I'm not familar with that
[07:59] <ubotu> heroinbob: fluxbox is a lightweight and responsive window manager for GNU/Linux. For how to set it up and more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fluxbox
[07:59] <Azu1> i don't like any music player that tries to be a smart ass and "organize" your music into albums n stuff
[07:59] <beni> Azu1: then take rhythmbox you'll like it
[07:59] <pike_> heroinbob: yeah
[08:00] <pike_> heroinbob: sudo apt-get install fluxbox
[08:00] <Beamoo> how do i get mp3 support on amarok?

[08:00] <tim167> stefg, I could do that, but now i have to find out how to regain permissions on this drive...
[08:00] <cowbud> I thought amarok had a script to prompt you to install the required libraries..
[08:00] <beni> haggard: Oh, you're always faster than me :)
[08:00] <beni> cowbud: never seen that
[08:00] <Azu1> beni: i prefer xmms.. too damn simple
[08:00] <haggard>  :p
[08:00] <lutz_> bruenig: ja, i am currently moving some things. still, i remember darkly something ab out system reserved space on any harddisk. if so, is it possible or even advisable, to use up _all_ space on a device when it is not the system partition
[08:00] <stefg> tim167: how didi you change them on the other box?
[08:00] <Azu1> beni: just plays music.. all i need from a music player
[08:01] <heroinbob> well i got fluxbox installled but i go to boot into it and its all blank
[08:01] <tim167> stefg chown -r tim /media/disk
[08:01] <knoppix> Azu1: did you try enlightment
[08:01] <tim167> stefg i mean with capital -R
[08:01] <pike_> heroinbob: can you rightclick for the menu?
[08:01] <alexseif> haggard: you might know what I'm talkin about
[08:01] <stefg> tim167: Congrats, you hosed another system... reinstall :-)
[08:01] <heroinbob> i can right click but all it says is fluxbox
[08:01] <duncan__> is there any way to access other disc drives from the terminal?

[08:03] <haggard> alexseif: if you want something along the lines of xmms, but more modern and under active development, try beep media player
[08:03] <pike_> duncan__: sudo fdisk -l to see the partitions and sudo mkdir /mnt/something; sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt/something  where hdb1 is whatever partition you saw with fdisk

[08:04] <Daleus> The card was not discovered until I installed the windows drivers with ndiswrapper
[08:04] <psykidellic> okie will check
[08:04] <alexseif> haggard: you think I can find along media monkey for windows (where I can the find a good engine and plug it in)
[08:04] <alienseer23> my card is not showing up under lspci
[08:05] <tim167> stefg, ah well with ubuntu istalling from scratch takes about 25 minutes, no big deal ;)

[08:06] <iratsu_> how can i resize a partition which is mounted? (my root partition)
[08:06] <DJ-_-> :P
[08:06] <DJ-_-> iratsu_: try a live cd
[08:06] <haggard> alexseif: i'm not too familiar with media monkey, but my best guess is Banshee or Amarok is what you're looking for
[08:06] <stefg> tim167: that's what i mean... and never ever do that again. *think* when you use sudo, *never* ever listen to someone telling you to run sudo rm-rf /* (deletes everything).... read docu, get smart, learn your lessons :-)
[08:06] <alienseer23> i will try the maual bcm43xx-fwcutter and be back if that does not work
[08:06] <iratsu_> DJ-_-: i can't boot from cds
[08:07] <alexseif> haggard: thnx a lot
[08:07] <Azu1> iratsu_: you can't unless it's reiserfs.. get a live cd and resize it from there
[08:07] <CoolGuy21> hi
[08:07] <CoolGuy21> can someone please help im getting a error trying to print cupsdAuthorize: No authentication data provided.
[08:07] <iratsu_> Azu1: i can't mount cds though
[08:07] <pike_> you know a distro requires you to compile stuff too often when you look over at the monitor at a compile thats been going on for 20 min and cant remember what app youre installing..
[08:07] <CoolGuy21> Log File is here http://pastebin.ca/559238
[08:07] <CoolGuy21> i get "/usr/lib/cups/backend/socket failed"   in cups interface
[08:07] <Azu1> iratsu_: who said anything about mounting cds
[08:07] <tim167> stefg, hehe noted!
[08:07] <Azu1> iratsu_: boot from a cd
[08:07] <Beamoo> Need help!
[08:07] <knoppix> Azu1: what does it meaning?
[08:08] <iratsu_> is there a way i can get to parted before mounting my root partition
[08:08] <alexseif> Ok since I installed ubuntu my windows has gon wacko (i need someone to discuss this with please)
[08:08] <Beamoo> when i try and update amarok i get this message
[08:08] <Beamoo> martin@martin-desktop:~$ apt-get update
[08:08] <Beamoo> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[08:08] <Beamoo> E: Unable to lock the list directory
[08:08] <aroo> alexseif, ask your question
[08:08] <DJ-_-> pike_: need help with squid || http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25130/
[08:08] <pike_> Beamoo: you have another apt-get going or synaptic is open
[08:08] <Beamoo> ok
[08:08] <Beamoo> how do i close that one then ?
[08:08] <Beamoo> restart me computer?
[08:08] <malakhi> Beamoo: Did you use sudo?
[08:09] <DJ-_-> Beamoo: or find the task and see what it is upto
[08:09] <Beamoo> haha done!
[08:09] <pike_> ps -A and pkill appname   for whatever app shows up you want to kill
[08:09] <Beamoo> sudo worked :P
[08:09] <alexseif> My pagefile seems to be having big problems (overwritten or disabeled or deleted)
[08:09] <pike_> Beamoo: heh that too
[08:09] <DrStrangeLov> is there a way to make samba persistent?
[08:09] <alexseif> invalid software like nero
[08:09] <DJ-_-> lol
[08:09] <DrStrangeLov> everytime my LAN disconnects samba goes down with it and won't reconnect
[08:09] <DJ-_-> pike_: familiar with squid?
[08:09] <pike_> DJ-_-: nope sorry
[08:10] <DrStrangeLov> atleast not until i restart the networking service and the samba services manually.
[08:10] <DJ-_-> pike_: ok, how about an open source mail server?
[08:10] <alexseif> aroo: can you help
[08:10] <pike_> DJ-_-: that a web dev app?
[08:10] <DJ-_-> !smtp
[08:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about smtp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:10] <DJ-_-> pike_: proxy server
[08:10] <DrStrangeLov> so anyone? i'd appreciate if you can 'elp me fix this
[08:10] <DJ-_-> anyone know of a good mail server
[08:10] <DrStrangeLov> something like a script is what i am looking for - a util would be better though
[08:10] <haggard> DJ-_-: sendmail or postfix
[08:10] <hajhouse> DJ-_-: i'm very happy with postfix
[08:11] <DJ-_-> postfix and sendmail support pop3 servers too?
[08:11] <radoe> DJ-_-: You should consider exim too
[08:11] <malakhi> DJ-_-: +1 for postfix
[08:11] <haggard> !postfix | DJ-_-
[08:11] <ubotu> DJ-_-: postfix is the default Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) for Ubuntu. Read more about setting it up here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix or here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto
[08:11] <DJ-_-> i need all in one mail server, like smtp, pop3 and imap
[08:11] <alexseif> arooooo
[08:11] <radoe> DJ-_-: Roll your own.
[08:12] <DJ-_-> ?
[08:12] <aroo> alexseif, did you mount your windows drives in ubuntu
[08:12] <malakhi> DJ-_-: those are 3 different functions, provided by different packages. ie, postfix for smtp, dovecot for imap and pop3
[08:12] <alexseif> yes
[08:12] <pike_> DrStrangeLov: what are you wanting it to do? why not use /etc/fstab so it automounts on boot? like //server/sharename /mountdir smbfs userid=foo,passwd=bar,rw 0 0
[08:12] <alexseif> and set it to mount automatic
[08:12] <kml> hi every body
[08:12] <aroo> alexseif, writing to ntfs is a bad idea
[08:12] <DJ-_-> malakhi: so basically there is no package that does all of that or atleast pop and smtp?
[08:12] <alexseif> fat32
[08:13] <fannagoganna> yeah, sounds like the best idea. I don't even know what automount does or why it's used
[08:13] <aroo> alexseif, your windows partition is fat32?
[08:13] <ubuntuEdgy> hot do i restart "nautilus" it has crashed on me
[08:13] <alexseif> but I didn't write on it neither give it the privlege or command
[08:13] <fannagoganna> what is automount for anyways?
[08:13] <alexseif> I only copy files from it
[08:13] <{HRF}Ghost> I need help with getting glib installed
[08:13] <radoe> DJ-_-: no. Not in a  single package.
[08:13] <{HRF}Ghost> First I need to find it
[08:13] <DJ-_-> radoe: ok
[08:13] <malakhi> DJ-_-: No. The closest there is would be courier, which is several packages created by the same people. I don't have much experience with it, personally.
[08:13] <aroo> alexseif, I don't know, ubuntu doesn't mess with your windows partition
[08:13] <DJ-_-> malakhi: thx will have a look
[08:13] <malakhi> DJ-_-: np
[08:14] <kml> i don't know, what happened, i can't find my windows partition under ubuntu ??
[08:14] <pike_> ubuntuEdgy: from a terminal type nohup nautilus&   then close the terminal
[08:14] <fannagoganna> ugh, nautilus
[08:14] <alexseif> not only the windows
[08:14] <{HRF}Ghost> I use xmms
[08:14] <fannagoganna> why is nautilus still so buggy?
[08:14] <hajhouse> is there a command-line tool in ubuntu to convert opendocument files (like .odt) to other formats (like RTF)?
[08:14] <aroo> fannagoganna, like what? works fine for me.
[08:14] <alexseif> maybe mounting them sets the partitions to something
[08:14] <kml> how can i have access to it again?
[08:14] <alexseif> ?
[08:14] <DJ-_-> anyone here have any experience with squid?
[08:14] <{HRF}Ghost> Who can help me with glib?
[08:15] <radoe> DJ-_-: courier has nice pop, pop3s, imap und imaps implementation. It has a smtp-server too, but I prefer exim together with courier pop3/imap
[08:15] <hajhouse> DJ-_-: yes. what's your question?
[08:15] <DJ-_-> radoe: ok
[08:15] <alexseif> I can't find anything on the ubuntu forum

[08:17] <_olaf> how can i reformat an external USB HDD that auto-mounts when i plug it in (it's NTFS right now)? or at least turn it off from read only?
[08:17] <{HRF}Ghost> Hmmm brb
[08:17] <pike_> ubuntuEdgy: and if youre still having problems may i recommend xubuntu? ;-)

[08:18] <DJ-_-> hajhouse: any ideas?

[08:18] <pike_> ubuntuEdgy: just alt-ctrl-backspace no reason to reboot

[08:23] <roryy> Phuz: you can search for files in packages on packages.ubuntu.com.  If you're trying to find files already on your system, investigate the 'locate' and 'find' commands.
[08:23] <radoe> Phuz: You have to install tcl8.4-dev for tcl.h
[08:23] <DrStrangeLov> why do i get the feeling that /etc/fstab alone won't cut it?

[08:32] <Bluhd> mariamoy: do you have a question?
[08:32] <smallfoot> i installed Microsoft core fonts, but they're not activated or something?
[08:32] <whiskey1973> i heard a mention of sudo su
[08:32] <Bluhd> whiskey1973: it works, but don't use it ;)
[08:32] <haggard> !root | whiskey1973
[08:32] <ubotu> whiskey1973: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[08:32] <DJ-_-> anyone know some squid? :P
[08:32] <whiskey1973> thank you very much folks
[08:32] <macaco_lider> heys
[08:33] <AlexC_> " do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible" reminds me matrix "do not try to bend the spoon, as that is impossible"
[08:33] <PriceChild> AlexC_, coincidence? ;)
[08:33] <jk2> forgot about he restricted driver !
[08:33] <macaco_lider> anyone speaks portuguese?
[08:33] <PriceChild> !pt | macaco_lider
[08:33] <bruenig> !br
[08:33] <ubotu> macaco_lider: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[08:33] <Bluhd> You disgust me all with your.... hm
[08:33] <smallfoot> love the Matrix reference in !root lol
[08:33] <jk2> si
[08:33] <stefg> AlexC_: who did you know /THAT/ ?
[08:33] <whiskey1973> yes on a lighter note i feel honored that my question was granted such a wonderfully colorful repsonse :P
[08:33] <AlexC_> !root > AlexC_
[08:34] <smallfoot> I installed the "Microsoft Core Fonts", but the websites dont use them, why?
[08:34] <Bluhd> smallfoot: blame CSS
[08:34] <macaco_lider> #ubuntu-pt
[08:34] <AlexC_> or you just need uo update font cache,
[08:34] <solowlr> Bluhd: my second hard drive is brand new, I want to format it and use it for media storage
[08:34] <jk2> if i want to set up an FTP server is Gftp an good ?
[08:34] <stefg> smallfoot: sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig
[08:34] <PriceChild> macaco_lider, /join #ubuntu-pt
[08:34] <Bluhd> solowlr: yes, but with what file system?
[08:34] <erUSUL> !ftpd | jk2
[08:34] <ubotu> jk2: FTP servers: !ftpd, !proftpd, !pure-ftpd, !twoftpd, !vsftpd, !MuddleFTPd, !wzdftpd - Graphical front-ends: !PureAdmin, !GProftpd (for !GNOME), !KcmPureftpd (for !KDE) - See also !FTP
[08:34] <jk2> * any
[08:34] <AlexC_> jk2: gFTP is not a server, but a client
[08:34] <Bluhd> solowlr: you can format it as EXT2, EXT3, FAT32, etc
[08:35] <jk2> ahh I thought it was a server too
[08:35] <jk2> good job
[08:35] <mariamoy> i am of espaa
[08:35] <solowlr> Bluhd: I'm guessing EXT3 is the best choice...?
[08:35] <AlexC_> how can I give a group the same permissions as a user would have to his /home/username dir?
[08:35] <AlexC_> chmod -R 771?
[08:35] <Bluhd> solowlr: probably
[08:35] <erUSUL> !es | mariamoy
[08:35] <ubotu> mariamoy: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[08:35] <Bluhd> solowlr: your hard drive is probably /dev/hdb1, right?
[08:36] <PriceChild> AlexC_, just make sure the first and second numbers are the asme
[08:36] <AlexC_> PriceChild: which would normally be 7, correct?
[08:36] <PriceChild> AlexC_, you then add whatever users you want to the group of the name of the user
[08:36] <jk2> I will work out this root malarky soon
[08:36] <PriceChild> AlexC_, that's full yes
[08:36] <dasok> whats a channel where i can ask general FOSS questions?
[08:36] <Bluhd> solowlr: where do you want to mount it?
[08:36] <PriceChild> dasok, #ubuntu-offtopic ?

[08:36] <dasok> ty
[08:37] <haggard> dasok: ##linux
[08:37] <solowlr> Bluhd: I'd like to mount it on /var/media
[08:37] <Rich_LI-NY> I want to install Ice Weasel (seamonkey) and was wondering is there any way I can use Apt-get to download and install a deb package?
[08:37] <Bluhd> solowlr: ok then
[08:37] <PriceChild> Rich_LI-NY, ice weasel isn't seamonkey...
[08:37] <AlexC_> PriceChild: and 1 for other yes? or 0? (this isn't actually for Ubuntu[sorry]  but I love this community to much =D) It's on a Dreamhost server, maybe 0 would be better for others as they would not be able to see into my home dir?
[08:37] <Bluhd> solowlr: $ sudo mkdir /var/media if it doesn't exist already
[08:37] <stefg> Rich_LI-NY: mixing up debian and ubuntu-repos is a *bad* idea
[08:37] <PriceChild> AlexC_, i'll find you a guide for the numbers :)
[08:38] <Rich_LI-NY> According to the site http://www.getdeb.com it's an unbranded seamonkey.
[08:38] <{HRF}Ghost> Ok, I'm getting alot of errors installing xchat
[08:38] <haggard> Rich_LI-NY: Iceweasel is Debian's version of Firefox
[08:38] <Rich_LI-NY> Sp[efg:  Oh . I didnt know..
[08:38] <PriceChild> AlexC_, man chmod is quite good...
[08:38] <smallfoot> stefg: thanks that worked. but i wish this was done automatically when i downloaded "microsoft core fonts", so i wouldnt have todo it myself
[08:38] <{HRF}Ghost> Is there anyway to add the xchat package to the Synaptic Package Manager?
[08:38] <kamikaye> Look guys i dont understand how 2 config wine
[08:39] <PriceChild> AlexC_, read = 4, write = 2, execute = 1
[08:39] <Rich_LI-NY> I just want a suite that doesnt suck up ram and is functional.. I installed Opera and I think the mail client sucks..
[08:39] <PriceChild> AlexC_, so 7 = full
[08:39] <Erik__> Hello all.  I've dones some looking around online and can't find a definitive solution:  Is there are known cause or way around this "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" error during initial install?
[08:39] <PriceChild> AlexC_, 6 would be read and write
[08:39] <erUSUL> !repos | {HRF}Ghost
[08:39] <ubotu> {HRF}Ghost: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[08:39] <stefg> smallfoot: should have been done... no idea why it failed in your case. takes a reboot, BTW, to get in effect
[08:39] <PriceChild> AlexC_, 5 would be read and execute, but not right
[08:39] <PriceChild> AlexC_, etc. etc.
[08:39] <Bluhd> solowlr: do you know how to manually mount a drive?
[08:39] <smallfoot> stefg: ah okie.. but i have rebooted
[08:39] <Rich_LI-NY> On Puppy Linux I liked SeaMonkey  and now I have it on my windows machine also.
[08:40] <erUSUL> {HRF}Ghost: add universe
[08:40] <AlexC_> PriceChild: hum, so would it be 771 or 770? Do I want 'others' to have any permissions (bearing in mind this is on a web server)
[08:40] <solowlr> Bluhd: yes but I think I've got to format the new drive first
[08:40] <smallfoot> was the terminal made white to not look scary?
[08:40] <Bluhd> solowlr: well, actually, you should format it as ext3 first
[08:40] <PriceChild> AlexC_, up to you :)
[08:40] <{HRF}Ghost> Ok thanks
[08:40] <Bluhd> solowlr: yeah, there's a tool in System->Administration I think
[08:40] <elYase> hello, is there a good application for high quality presentations, like windows powerplugs for example?
[08:40] <jk2> i dont think i can go to something so backward as Vista now :X
[08:40] <AlexC_> smallfoot: it can be blank, pink, red, green, yellow ... what ever you want
[08:40] <alexseif> I have problems with my windows since I installed windows I need someone to help me
[08:40] <PriceChild> AlexC_, I don't know what you want :P
[08:40] <smallfoot> AlexC, yeah i made it black bakground, white text, as it SHOULD BE

[08:41] <Rich_LI-NY> lmao @ bot :))
[08:41] <AlexC_> PriceChild: ok, thanks - I'll go fiddle around with it then =D
[08:41] <alexseif> my windows pagefile is messed up and  some software also
[08:41] <DJ-_-> anyone experienced with squid? || http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25130/
[08:41] <smallfoot> AlexC, ya but these desktop effects dont work for me, the screen just goes all white, i have GeForce 8600
[08:41] <alexseif> ofcoarse I keep running out of virtual memory
[08:41] <jk2> restart
[08:41] <Pici> alexseif: This isnt the channel for Windows support.
[08:41] <PriceChild> smallfoot, because you haven't set it up properly ;)
[08:42] <AlexC_> alexseif: yes because people often come into #UBUNTU to have help on WINDOWS
[08:42] <stefg> alexseif: this is #ubuntu....
[08:42] <Rich_LI-NY> alexseif: Go to http://www.ubuntu.com and download a CD .
[08:42] <Pici> alexseif: WINDOWS?!?!? THIS. IS. LINUX!!!
[08:42] <AlexC_> no need for caps,
[08:42] <PriceChild> Lets move on please everyone.
[08:42] <Pici> :)
[08:42] <smallfoot> PriceChild, but I want it to "just work", so I dont have to spend time setting up and fiddling
[08:42] <Pici> It was my best Spartan impression.
[08:43] <PriceChild> smallfoot, We can't do that for Feisty... the card was released after Feisty.

[08:46] <olaf_> how do i mount my external USB drive so that i can write to it?
[08:47] <Nephelauxetic> ax, it's a bit old (7.0) but works fine.
[08:47] <olaf_> it auto-mounts when i turn it on
[08:47] <PriceChild> !ask | ficos
[08:47] <ubotu> ficos: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)

[08:47] <ficos> I have problem using powerpoint
[08:47] <Erik__> If I could interrupt for a moment all this yelling...I having a problem with install that I could use some help with...
[08:47] <ficos> with wine
[08:47] <PriceChild> Erik__, please ask the question :) The commentry only makes more noise :)
[08:47] <alexseif> Ubuntu messes with the other partitions although they are in read only
[08:47] <Bluhd> kamikaye: what are you trying to run? Are you running something from the menu or something from the console (command prompt)?
[08:47] <gnomefreak> ficos: might want to try #winehq
[08:47] <alexseif> and I only cp from them
[08:47] <rageagaintthis> i am trying to mount a data dvd, when i use "mount cdrom0" i get wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock...... where do i go from here to mount this dvd?
[08:48] <DJ-_-> alexseif: what is the problem you face in actual
[08:48] <kamikaye> alin@alin:/usr/lib64/wine$ ./configure
[08:48] <kamikaye> bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
[08:48] <ficos> ok cool
[08:48] <kamikaye> thats the problem
[08:48] <mrcreativity> can someone tell me about desktop widgets for ubuntu?
[08:48] <stefg> alexseif: that's an unproven assumption
[08:48] <Pici> kamikaye: The command is wine-config I believe.
[08:48] <fatejudger> does anyone know how I could locate the name of the driver that is currently being used to control my wireless card?
[08:48] <Bluhd> kamikaye: ./configure is something you run when you're compiling, not configuring a program
[08:48] <Bluhd> kamikaye: run winecfg
[08:48] <nanotaboada> stefg: there's only 3 devices in fstab, which in principle is correct since right now i've got the hdd, a dvdrw and a cdr
[08:48] <Pici> kamikaye: And it should be in your path, you shouldnt have to go to the wine directory.
[08:48] <Nephelauxetic> mrcreativity, I think they're called gnome-applets
[08:49] <nanotaboada> stefg: want a copy of the fstab on pastebin?
[08:49] <Erik__> During the ininitial boot, after the menu screen, I get the bouncy bar, and then  a busybox error: "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off"  I've looked around online and many peopel seem to be havingthis problem, but I didn't see any definitive solution.
[08:49] <alexseif> I keep running out of virtua;l memory in windows becauses the pagefiles keep getting lost every time I start ubuntu
[08:49] <kamikaye> k thx now my final problem how do i run a setup from cd?
[08:49] <alexseif> and some software isn't working
[08:49] <carajea2> hey do u guys no of any like finance tools that are supported under linux?? something like microsoft money.
[08:49] <Bluhd> kamikaye: what do you mean?
[08:49] <mrcreativity> gnome applets? and they can appear on the desktop like widgets? do i need to seperate engine?

[08:49] <stefg> nanotaboada: i could have a look, but generally the optical devices should be /dev/scd0 and /dev/scd1 then
[08:50] <DJ-_-> alexseif: hmm.,..sounds like a windows problem to me
[08:50] <Nephelauxetic> mrcreativity, yes but it's a bit crappy... no fancy GUI
[08:50] <Pici> kkathman: navigate to the cd drive, and just type `wine setup.exe` or whatever the setup program's name is
[08:50] <alexseif> PriceChild: a) it ubuntu thats the problem
[08:50] <alexseif> b) i am there
[08:50] <gnomefreak> alexseif: ubuntu doesnt touch another HD unless you tell it to, either something you are doing wrong when you are cp,ing or its a windows issue
[08:50] <kkathman> pici  huh?
[08:50] <PocketIRC> When will ubuntu support wifi (good) out of the box?
[08:50] <PriceChild> alexseif, Ubuntu will not destroy the pagefile like that.
[08:50] <alexseif> that's whats driving me crazy
[08:50] <mrcreativity> i cant seem to make that gdesklets thing work
[08:50] <Pici> kkathman: Sorry, wrong name.

[08:51] <_olaf> how do i mount my external USB drive so that i can write to it?
[08:51] <stefg> nanotaboada: libata! read the link in ! uuid
[08:51] <beni> kamikaye: you dont need to compile wine+
[08:51] <Bluhd> kamikaye: you don't need to compile wine if you installed the binary package from synaptic or something
[08:51] <Pici> kamikaye: Why do you need to compile wine? Its in the ubuntu repositories.
 it finds my card but wont connect..same problem as other cards
[08:51] <haggard> kamikaye: is there a reason you're trying to compile wine from source?
[08:51] <gnomefreak> alexseif: that will cause your exact issue
[08:51] <beni> kamikaye: just "sudo apt-get install wine"
[08:51] <beni> kamikaye: then "winecfg"

[08:54] <kamikaye> k thx lets give it a try
 is it possible it founds the card but cannot connect anyway because it is unsupported?
[08:54] <stefg> Monteh: virtualization and gaming are mutually exclusive
[08:54] <alexseif> yes
[08:54] <gnomefreak> a;programs fail to run because they are now in 2 spots if you screwed up using cp.
[08:54] <erUSUL> kamikaye: cd /mount/point/of/dvd (usually) /media/cdrom*
[08:54] <gnomefreak> alexseif: ^^^
[08:54] <alexseif> I copy files to my ubuntu workspace
[08:54] <Aggrav8d> hi!  how do i tell ubuntu to stop trying to apt-get from cdrom because I don't have the CD any more?
[08:54] <PriceChild> PocketIRC, _no-one_ can help you until you tell us the model of your card.
[08:54] <gnomefreak> alexseif: re-check your commands
[08:54] <erUSUL> Aggrav8d: disable it in the list of repos
[08:54] <Monteh> what is the best way to play windows games on linux then?
[08:54] <Monteh> =o
[08:54] <Bluhd> Aggrav8d: run synaptic and go to the repo list

[08:55] <Erik__> So no one has any suggestions on this "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" error during install, then?
[08:55] <gnomefreak> alexseif: its not ubuntu as ubuntu can not run commands on another partition by itself UNLESS you have a script that does it
[08:55] <alexseif> sudo cp source dest

[08:56] <haggard> Monteh: CrossOver Office supports some games
[08:56] <rambo3> _olaf, sudo fdisk -l
[08:56] <gnomefreak> alexseif: doesnt matter what is installed if you dont have a script that does it than its user error not ubuntu error. Please see ##windows on how to make sure your files are in correct place and only the places it needs to be in
[08:57] <Monteh> haggard: yeah bought the basic one of that too -_- lol
[08:57] <Pici> kamikaye: You dont need to be in the wine directory to run wine, just cd into the cdrom drive
[08:57] <carajea2> Hey anyone ever use Moneydance as a personal finance tool?? It seems more advanced then gnucash
[08:57] <S0me1> Did anyone faced this error "E: conexant: subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 1"
[08:58] <S0me1> I can not install any software via apt
[08:58] <kamikaye> but nothing happens then
[08:58] <kamikaye> and i read how 2 configure cd rom drive but i dont know how
[08:58] <Enselic__> Is it possible to select text with only keys in the gnome-terminal?
[08:59] <Nephelauxetic> kamikaye, did you try to create an iso file and directly mount that?
[08:59] <hendrixski> I have an apt problem :-(
[08:59] <kamikaye> nope
[08:59] <submissiveone> can sumone help me?
[08:59] <kamikaye> i just wanted to start the setup from cd via wine
[08:59] <TheCougar> pay for a peice of software when the designers can't even get the website up and running fully... hum lol
[08:59] <hendrixski> when I run sudo apt-get update everything works fine... then I go into a chroot and run it and nothing works
[09:00] <hendrixski> the sources.list files are the same
[09:00] <Erik__> OK, well...I guess I give up on this probelm, then.  If I can't install ubuntu, I'll never know if it's better than what I was using before...
[09:00] <hendrixski> but the dchroot just won't apt-get anything to save its life
[09:00] <Nephelauxetic> kamikaye, perheps the setup tries to unpack some stuff but doesn't have the permisson?
[09:00] <smallfoot> i have xchat in gnome,why i cant see peoples name on the right?
[09:00] <smallfoot> should i use bitchx or irssi or something else?
[09:00] <kbrooks> smallfoot, um
[09:00] <kbrooks> smallfoot, they are there!!!
[09:00] <submissiveone> does anyone know of a program i can get thats simular to 'partition magic'...?
[09:00] <kamikaye> but console says cant find
[09:00] <chombee> I cant take this anymore, does anyone know how to use a Swiss keyboard? I have set the layout to UK, but I still cant make some characters, like tick marks
[09:00] <mc44> submissiveone: gparted
[09:00] <smallfoot> submissiveone: QTParted
[09:00] <Nephelauxetic> smallfoot, just move the slider
[09:01] <kbrooks> smallfoot, do you notice the  thing near the right part?
[09:01] <hendrixski> smallfoot, it may be too small just drag the side there and drag it inwards
[09:01] <kbrooks> smallfoot, move your mouse there
[09:01] <kharloss> what do you know about   " Cisco Discovery Protocol  " ?
[09:01] <kbrooks> smallfoot, then click, and move it left
[09:01] <smallfoot> i dont find it
[09:01] <hendrixski> my apt-get isn't working in my dchroot :-(
[09:01] <Nephelauxetic> smallfoot, try harder :D
[09:01] <kbrooks> smallfoot, ok. try again, using these new instructions.
[09:02] <kbrooks> smallfoot, tell me when you have done each step
[09:02] <smallfoot> ok
[09:02] <CoolGuy21> how do i run install-sh file?
[09:02] <Aggrav8d> from the command line, how do i remove the cdrom from sources.list?  i want to install libapache2-mod-perl2 but can't because it's looking for a CD I don't have any more.
[09:02] <kbrooks> smallfoot, #1. move your mouse to the X button in xchat.
[09:02] <smallfoot> the big x or the little x? lol
[09:02] <defjux> hi, i fell asleep and a screensaver froze my pc and now i've woken up and for some reason my HD is ROM~! pls why?
[09:02] <gnomefreak> Aggrav8d: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:02] <Nephelauxetic> CoolGuy21, either chmod 755 it an than ./install_sh or try /bin/sh install_sh
[09:03] <chombee> Basically, it seems to be missing the backtick key. There must be some way to rebind one of the accent keys to backtick. Every other accent key seemed to get binded to normal when I set the layout to UK, but backtick still does an accent
[09:03] <kbrooks> smallfoot, see the title, "XChat: smallfoot @ ..." ?
[09:03] <pramz> hmm this is interesting, safari beta released for windows "\
[09:03] <nickrud_> chombee, system-prefs-keyboard, tab layouts: you can use the add button to add keyboard layouts
[09:03] <smallfoot> kbrooks: nope
[09:03] <kbrooks> smallfoot, what do you mean, no?
[09:03] <smallfoot> my title says "Ubuntu server: #ubuntu"
[09:04] <Aggrav8d> gnomefreak - thanks!
[09:04] <kbrooks> smallfoot, well, that doesnt matter. so, now, move the mouse to the 3 thingies you see beside the title.
[09:04] <gnomefreak> yw
[09:04] <Aggrav8d> gnomefreak - btw, diff gksudo/sudo?
[09:04] <smallfoot> kbrooks: the 3 buttons, thats minimize, maximise and close?
[09:04] <gnomefreak> !gksudo | Aggrav8d
[09:04] <ubotu> Aggrav8d: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[09:04] <kbrooks> smallfoot, yes. but only move the mouse
[09:04] <smallfoot> ok
[09:04] <Aggrav8d> gnomefreak - ty.
[09:04] <chombee> nickrud_ yeah I added the UK layout, but it didnt work for some keys
[09:05] <Nephelauxetic> is it possible to use gksudo via SSH?
[09:05] <kbrooks> smallfoot, after you do that, move your mouse down to the area beside the topic (above the chat log) and above where you type to the channel
[09:06] <PriceChild> Nephelauxetic, if you forward the x server... (slow)
[09:06] <nickrud_> chombee, there's a few swiss layouts as well. I speak only english so I don't know the quality of them, though
[09:06] <kbrooks> smallfoot, but not in any of these areas - to the right of them.
[09:06] <kamikaye> k now i realy want to know how to install something with wine from cd
[09:06] <Nephelauxetic> PriceChild, cool. didn't know that. so I won't use sudo anymore for GUI
[09:06] <hendrixski> I just wasted a ****** hour of my development trying to get the **** dchroot to apt-get properly
[09:06] <smallfoot> kbrooks: the little X button? the scrollbar?
[09:06] <PriceChild> Nephelauxetic, need to use ssh -x host
[09:06] <PriceChild> Nephelauxetic, -X sorry
[09:06] <chombee> nickrud_ -- the Swiss keyboard is crazy, it has some letters in the wrong place, and sometimes to make a character you have to tap one key then quickly tap another. I just want it to be UK
[09:06] <Nephelauxetic> smallfoot, a bit left to the scrollbar
[09:06] <hendrixski> every time I good this **** someone else posted it and they just said that the repositories were down
[09:07] <kamikaye> can someone pls help
[09:07] <kbrooks> smallfoot, well, below the X button, and beside the scrollbar
[09:07] <defjux> how so i make my HD stop being ROM?? it says "the permissions could not be changed" / "sorry, couldn't change the permissions of filesystem"
[09:07] <Nephelauxetic> PriceChild, yeah this i knew
[09:07] <smallfoot> ok
[09:07] <hendrixski> and they're not down.. because I CAN update from them when I'm not int he chroot
[09:07] <hendrixski> what the hell is wrong with my chroot system???
[09:07] <unimatrix9> how was the gnome editor , from bash , i forgot how to start it..?
[09:07] <unimatrix9> tips are welcome
[09:07] <Nephelauxetic> unikon, gedit
[09:07] <kamikaye> how can i install something via dvd with wine
[09:07] <rcmiv> security question - if someone were to gain access to my home server, what is the first thing they would most likely do?
[09:07] <kbrooks> smallfoot, when you have done that, you should see a <-> kind of mouse icon.
[09:07] <blackest> i think i have found a bug in clipboard
[09:07] <Nephelauxetic> eh unimatrix9 gedit
[09:08] <unimatrix9> no i mean gnome editor, to edit settings
[09:08] <unimatrix9> :)
[09:08] <smallfoot> i dont see it
[09:08] <hendrixski> why can I apt-get update on my system but not on a chroot which has the same sources.list file?
[09:08] <Nephelauxetic> unimatrix9, gconf-editor ?
[09:08] <unimatrix9> ah yes!
[09:08] <unimatrix9> thank your
[09:08] <unimatrix9> you
[09:08] <unimatrix9> :P
[09:08] <Nephelauxetic> welcome :)
[09:08] <Huck_2000> quick question: is the "Add/Remove Programs" tool a replacement for synaptic? Does it install dependant files like aptitude?
[09:08] <blackest> every time i copy [5] ; i get []  and next line 5;
[09:08] <kbrooks> smallfoot, okay, look at the scrollbar. move your mouse to the AREA beside it, TO THE right.
[09:09] <michup> hi, im looking for some program similar to cool edit for ubuntu to make radio auditions?
[09:09] <hendrixski> Huck_2000, its the same thing practically .. just easier for newcommers
[09:09] <rcmiv> another security question: has anyone here ever had there machine compromised, say via ssh?
[09:09] <AlexC_> Huck_2000: it's not a replacement, just a simple version - which uses apt-get not apttitude
[09:09] <AlexC_> Huck_2000: synaptic also uses apt-get,
[09:09] <kbrooks> smallfoot, now, do you ever get the <-> mouse cursor?
[09:09] <smallfoot> kbrooks: then i have to make xhcat smaller, cuz now its full screen
[09:09] <kbrooks> rcmiv, i got rooted once before.
[09:09] <Huck_2000> AlexC_: hendrixski
[09:09] <Huck_2000> ooops
[09:09] <Huck_2000> Thanks!!!
[09:09] <rcmiv> kbrooks, really, how, and how did you know?
[09:09] <AlexC_> Huck_2000: you're welcome
[09:09] <hendrixski> Huck_2000, yw
[09:10] <hendrixski> so nobody here knows how to help me with my chroot problem?
[09:10] <hwilde> is there any other way to set mode ad-hoc if iwconfig doesn't work?
[09:10] <rcmiv> kbrooks, I ask because I feel that I only know enough linux security to endanger myself
[09:10] <kbrooks> rcmiv, er, i had a user that the person cracked into. the history file was able to tell me what the cracker did
[09:10] <smallfoot> well, im tired of this lol
[09:10] <kbrooks> rcmiv, but it was mostly my fault
[09:10] <smallfoot> whatever
[09:10] <frank_> hi
[09:10] <rcmiv> kbrooks, i suspect that is most often the case
[09:10] <anrade> hi frank_
[09:11] <frank_> i have a problem using xvid to create .flv movies of my desktop
[09:11] <Nephelauxetic> kbrooks, but he did get root access? xD
[09:11] <rcmiv> kbrooks, exactly what I am trying to avoid
[09:11] <kbrooks> Nephelauxetic, possibly, although i doubt it.
[09:11] <frank_> when i turn the sound (which is intended to come from my microphone) off, it works
[09:11] <kamikay1> pls i need a little help
[09:11] <frank_> when i turn it on and start xvidcap from the terminal the following error appears:
[09:11] <Nephelauxetic> kbrooks, if he wasn't a sudoer i doubt to
[09:11] <rcmiv> i have been perhaps naively assuming that all of these dictionary attacks on ssh are harmless
[09:11] <nickrud_> chombee, I am only a little conversant with xkb, maybe you can adjust with the compose key. A place to start looking might be http://hektor.umcs.lublin.pl/~mikosmul/computing/articles/custom-keyboard-layouts-xkb.html , it has some pointers and links to more info about how the keyboard is handled

[09:11] <kbrooks> Nephelauxetic, i think i was using sudo, so he could have gotten access with the password that i set for the user.
[09:12] <hendrixski> frank_, jebus use pastebin!!!
[09:12] <frank_> i tried to google this but wasn't successful
[09:12] <kamikay1> how can i install something via dvd with wine (know how to do it with setup files)
[09:12] <rcmiv> but denyhosts gives me a headache
[09:12] <chombee> nickrud_ -thanks, I will look
[09:12] <hendrixski> !paste | frank_
[09:12] <ubotu> frank_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:12] <frank_> hendrixski: cmon 5 lines should be ok
[09:12] <kbrooks> Nephelauxetic, just a FYI, sudo is as much of a security hole as su is, if you do not do the right things
[09:12] <hendrixski> frank_, I thought there were more coming
[09:12] <kbrooks> rcmiv, (read the FYI above)
[09:12] <kamikay1> how can i install something via dvd with wine (know how to do it with setup files)
[09:12] <frank_> hendrixski: no, then i would have used nopaste :D
[09:12] <AlexC_> frank_: this is the busyiest channel on freenode, 5 lines is a lot,
[09:12] <Nephelauxetic> rcmiv, simply don't admin common user names...
[09:13] <rambo3> 3 lines is the limit
[09:13] <frank_> yeah ok sorry
[09:13] <clahey> Hey there.  I'm editing the debian/ directory of the program I work on, Democracy Player.  I build two packages from one source and I want the one to depend on the specific version of the other.  Currently, we depend on >= 0.9.6, but it should be = and I want to make it so that we don't have to update it with each version.
[09:13] <rcmiv> kbrooks, what 'right things' are you suggesting... other than not allowing users' admin rights
[09:13] <clahey> It's too easy to forget.
[09:13] <frank_> AlexC_: hendrixski but what is about my problem? :D
[09:13] <kamikay1> how can i install something via dvd with wine (know how to do it with setup files)
[09:13] <smallfoot> in Slackware, i could press Ctrl-F1 and F2 and stuff, and goto other consoles, why i cant in Ubuntu?
[09:13] <clahey> Can anyone help with this or refer me to the right place?
[09:13] <kbrooks> rcmiv, well, an OS is as weak as the software on it.
[09:13] <regius> hi! I got a wierd problem. I can't have subtitle in vlc when i'm in full screen but it works when i bring it to a window
[09:13] <clahey> smallfoot: Try Ctrl-Alt-F1 if you're on X11.
[09:13] <smallfoot> oh okie
[09:14] <kamikay1> pls can someone help -.- im really pissed off
[09:14] <hendrixski> frank_, you're segfaulting... something in the program is hozed... like a config or it mis-compiled or is just buggy
[09:14] <rcmiv> kbrooks, thanks for the info
[09:14] <kbrooks> kamikay1, what do you want to do?
[09:14] <ompaul> NOTICE: I am about to undo a large list of bans - a very large list -

[09:14] <fatejudger> I can't seem to change any of the power settings on my Inspiron 1100. The power management area of the control panel does seems to be functional, but never implements the changes I make.
[09:14] <smallfoot> clahey: but its like 20 lines only, before in slackware, i had vga=971 or something, and it was big resolution
[09:14] <kbrooks> rcmiv, so, that means UPDATE YOUR software

[09:17] <ompaul> kbrooks, offtopic I'll pm
[09:17] <fatejudger> I had no problems in Edgy
[09:18] <coreGrl> I'm trying to install a Creative Technology, Ltd VideoBlaster WebCam Go Plus [W9967CF] , but it doesn't works with amsn someone can point me in the right direction?
[09:18] <ompaul>  events; near.
[09:18] <ompaul> woops
[09:18] <Nephelauxetic> iarwain_, you can turn them on by echo 0 > /proc/acpi/fan/*/state
[09:18] <UzzaDead> afternoon all, on boot im getting filesystem is NOT clean errors and it seems i need to run fsck to fix them any warnings?
[09:18] <fatejudger> I don't understand why upgrading would cause power settings to become non-functioning
[09:18] <michup> ive pop up window with message like that: Ardour could not connect to JACK. There are several possible reasons...
[09:18] <michup> what is JACK
[09:18] <michup> ?
[09:18] <TheCougar> is it just me or is transgaming.com's website half full of 404s?
[09:18] <smallfoot> coreGrl: i dont know, but try also in #amsn maybe
[09:18] <jk2> !rpm
[09:18] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[09:18] <hendrixski> fatejudger, updates are generally for the better... but sometimes will replace software with something that may not work 100% on your system
[09:19] <rcmiv> !jack
[09:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jack - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:19] <iarwain_> Nephelauxetic: 'no such file or directory'
[09:19] <coreGrl> tank smallfoot
[09:19] <jk2> apt file ehh I need for FTPD ;x
[09:19] <smallfoot> TheCougar: i dont know, i dont visit it, its propriteary softwares
[09:19] <smallfoot> coreGrl:  np :)
[09:19] <sdover> Does anyone know how to remove a driver?
[09:19] <fatejudger> hendrixski: well how is it that power settings worked 100% in edgy, but 0% in feisty?
[09:19] <rambo3> UzzaDead, you should use live CD if filecheck is not ran automatically
[09:19] <TheCougar> smallfoot: anything as good as it out there that isn't 'propriteary softwares' ?
[09:19] <Nephelauxetic> sdover, you have to blacklist it
[09:19] <tondar> hey all
[09:19] <sdover> how do you do that
[09:19] <UzzaDead> michup, JACK is an audio connection toolkit if i remember correctly
[09:19] <tondar> safari for ubuntu?
[09:19] <hendrixski> fatejudger, probably because the software that manages the power settings was upgraded, and the upgrade needs a bug filed for your system
[09:19] <rcmiv> michup, jack is an alternative audio server
[09:19] <centrex> Does anyone have any good documentation on how to change an ubuntu distribution to a debian one completely without reinstalling?
[09:20] <UzzaDead> rambo3, do i have to do anything special because im running reiserfs?
[09:20] <hendrixski> fatejudger, in fact, you should file a bug.  :-) www.launchpad.net
[09:20] <Nephelauxetic> sdover, look in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[09:20] <tondar> is there a port for safari to ubuntu?
[09:20] <frank_> has noone an idea?
[09:20] <jk2> I presume I am now looking for an ftp program that has a file extension APT ?
[09:20] <michup> okay so i simply install it then and it should work
[09:20] <michup> ?
[09:20] <hendrixski> fatejudger, the more people do these kinds of things the better Ubuntu becomes :-)
[09:20] <UzzaDead> michup, thats the theory
[09:20] <rcmiv> michup, yep, in a perfect world.  I've had pretty good luck with it
[09:20] <rambo3> UzzaDead, i don't know anything about reiserfs .
[09:20] <michup> rcmiv: its alternative for what?
[09:21] <UzzaDead> thanks rambo3
[09:21] <rcmiv> michup, alsa or oss
[09:21] <rambo3> np
[09:21] <michup> ohh okay
[09:21] <jk2> help !
[09:21] <hendrixski> tondar, Mac uses some crappy proprietary graphical interface for all their stuff, including saffari so that wont work on other Unixes
[09:21] <rcmiv> michup, http://jackaudio.org/
[09:21] <hendrixski> tondar, but they have made a port to Windows... so you can run it on linux through wine
[09:21] <fatejudger> hendrixski: so I take it you have no idea what would cause this
[09:21] <iarwain_> Nephelauxetic: i have i8kmon installed (so i can control my fans) but when it gets over 35 or so, the fans keep stopping whilst detracting 1 or 2
[09:21] <michup> didnt know there is any other sound demons
[09:21] <KI4IKL> What command can I use to get the updates for the system?
[09:21] <tondar> hendrixski: yeah, I guess
[09:22] <fatejudger> hendrixski: perhaps it has to do something with my switch from KDE to Gnome in the process of upgrading
[09:22] <AlexC_> KI4IKL: sudo apt-get update ? #ubuntu is probably best for ubuntu support :P
[09:22] <UzzaDead> i still think linux is trying to kill me on occasion
[09:22] <KI4IKL> I am in ubuntu...
[09:22] <hendrixski> fatejudger, no idea ... sorry... but I do encourage you to see if someone else file this bug (there may be a patch that you can help them test) if not then they can't fix what they don't know about so tell them
[09:22] <KI4IKL> AlexC_, this IS the ubuntu channel.
[09:23] <AlexC_> KI4IKL: man .. I'm messed up, I thought this was #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:23] <cotyrothery> can someone help me with getting WoW to work with ubuntu 7.04
[09:23] <KI4IKL> and no, update does the repositories
[09:23] <hendrixski> fatejudger, the KDE to GNOME thing shouldn't be the culprit because power management is usually lower level than windows managers
[09:23] <Nephelauxetic> iarwain_, i'm always on 40 deg and don't care :)
[09:23] <fatejudger> hendrixski: I doubt it's a bug, more like ACPI isn't communicating with the settings manager or something
[09:24] <UzzaDead> hendrixski, im actually having some power management issues myself but they seem to come and go
[09:24] <cotyrothery> Does anyone know how to get world of warcraft to work on ubuntu if so could you help me out please...
[09:24] <rcmiv> Nephelauxetic, heat is something I am paranoid about, do you think 40C is a safe operating temp?
[09:24] <iarwain_> Nephelauxetic: hmm, but it's quite hot when it's on my lap.. The thing that concerns me, is that in never gets that hot in Windows whilst playing, and in Ubuntu i'm just surfing and listening to music..
[09:24] <fatejudger> hendrixski: well I remember that there was some button in KDE that enabled the power management stuff
[09:24] <fatejudger> hendrixski: there is no such button in Gnome
[09:24] <Nephelauxetic> rcmiv, absolutely yeah
[09:24] <pike_> cotyrothery: easiest way is cedega from what i gather though people use wine too
[09:24] <rcmiv> Nephelauxetic, I usually run about 32C in the summer and it makes me spastic that my hd's are going to toast
[09:25] <Nephelauxetic> rcmiv, temperature measurement accuracy always depends on the person who measures
[09:25] <smallfoot> anyone noticed ubuntu installer is broken, partition thing is broken, i try make 20 gb partition and 480 gb partition, then it makes it 30 gb partition, why?
[09:25] <Nephelauxetic> and on the system
[09:25] <rcmiv> Nephelauxetic, that's a really cool thing to know...npi
[09:25] <Nephelauxetic> you never know where the sensors are
[09:25] <UzzaDead> smallfoot, how many people have the space to do or test that :)
[09:25] <null> How can I keep /usr/bin/updatedb from cronning  in the background?  I'm guessing it's for the locate command, which I have no need for.
[09:25] <smallfoot> UzzaDead: me, i bought computer with 500 gb harddisk
[09:26] <jk2> Starting ftp server proftpd                                                   - IPv6 getaddrinfo '****-desktop' error: No address associated with hostname
[09:26] <jk2> :/ wtf
[09:26] <iarwain_> Nephelauxetic: well, the heat comes from the center of the lappy, where the cpu is.
[09:26] <UzzaDead> smallfoot, i just meant most people dont run close to that kind of space
[09:26] <rambo3> 480 gb for swap ?
[09:26] <Nephelauxetic> rcmiv, my cores are now 40 and 47, the rest is 30
[09:26] <smallfoot> rambo3: no 0 gb for space, cuz i have 4 gb RAM
[09:26] <UzzaDead> why not 480gb for boot rambo3 :)
[09:26] <smallfoot> rambo3: the 480 gb is for pr0n
[09:26] <jk2> how do you set up proftpd if you cant get into it ;x
[09:26] <PriceChild> !ohmy | smallfoot
[09:26] <ubotu> smallfoot: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:26] <rcmiv> Nephelauxetic, that sound pretty close to what I normally see
[09:26] <UzzaDead> a good use of space :D
[09:27] <rcmiv> Nephelauxetic, thx
[09:27] <smallfoot> oh, you cant say pr0n?
[09:27] <UzzaDead> probably not a good idea
[09:27] <Nephelauxetic> rcmiv, I will check what temps I have on my Athlon 6000
[09:27] <jk2> anyone ?
[09:27] <smallfoot> ok
[09:27] <krekas> hi guys, I have my cdrom drive broken, but I must install ubuntu, is there any way I can make my pen bootable after "burning" the iso??
[09:28] <rambo3> !install | krekas
[09:28] <smallfoot> but i noticed ubuntu is not good for "adult movies", cuz it open some of them in browser, which is annoying, instead of open them in external player, and when it does open them in external player, you cant Double the size, you can only fullscreen
[09:28] <UzzaDead> krekas, you may be able to do a network install
[09:28] <ubotu> krekas: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[09:28] <fivetwentysix> smallfoot you can save link as.
[09:28] <jk2> sorry guys whats the command to open a program
[09:28] <UzzaDead> jk2, most of the time you just type the name of the prog
[09:28] <fivetwentysix> jk2 ./program
[09:28] <smallfoot> fivetwentysix: but i shouldnt have to
[09:28] <UzzaDead> or ./progname
[09:29] <jk2> proftpd it is
[09:29] <rambo3> krekas, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[09:29] <Nephelauxetic> loool
[09:29] <fivetwentysix> try typing proftpd
[09:29] <UzzaDead> im under the impression its not wise to run fsck on a running FS?
[09:29] <Nephelauxetic> smallfoot, you're so funny
[09:29] <krekas> I'm going to check those websites..and the network installation, if I can't do it, I'll bother you guys agin! ;) thanks

[09:30] <jk2> no address ?
[09:30] <Nephelauxetic> smallfoot, or GParted
[09:31] <Enselic__> smallfoot: use gparted that comes with the ubuntu install disk
[09:31] <iarwain_> jk2: i don't know anything about proftpd, just that you had to use sudo for you ;)
[09:31] <jk2> lol
[09:31] <smallfoot> Enselic__: ok

[09:42] <Hillview> nickrud_, it's not =/
[09:42] <Nephelauxetic> rory096, private chat = query... that opens a window or adds a name or shit...
[09:42] <jk2> if I knew how or what I was looking for UzzaDead !
[09:42] <rory096> ah, ok
[09:42] <kaos> so does anyone know where i can download a linux tutorial?
[09:43] <tcleval> Bluhd, it seem to be a nexuiz problem, and i saw some posts on the foruns about this problem, but no solution
[09:43] <nickrud_> Hillview, what device is dmesg showing as?
[09:43] <Bluhd> tcleval: what gfx card?
[09:43] <UzzaDead> jk2, the first place to look is where its showing now but i have no experience with that
[09:43] <killers> i use sources.list that came by default.. is there some thing enabled by default that causes problems?
[09:43] <vaidas> somebody here has to tell me why I'm getting 100% cpu usage with ati x1600 when switched to beryl
[09:43] <Perun> hmm problem with firefox, if I try to start it, it says its already started and I should kill this process first, but If I do ps -A, there is no firefox running
[09:43] <smallfoot> kaos, bookstore
[09:43] <Bluhd> tcleval: I tried running nexuiz on windows using a card that didn't support GLSL and it ran slow as hell until I turned it off
[09:43] <smallfoot> kaos, howtoforge.com maybe
[09:43] <UzzaDead> vaidas, ATI sucks jk :)
[09:43] <smallfoot> kaos, linux.com
[09:43] <kitsuneofdoom> Perun: firefox-bin
[09:43] <elYase> hello, is there a good application for high quality presentations, like windows powerplugs for example?
[09:43] <fxfitz> I just installed a new PCI card. Is there anyway that I can check and see if it was recognized by Ubuntu???
[09:43] <nickrud_> killers, if you'd paste it on paste.ubuntu-nl.org, someone will look at it
[09:43] <Bluhd> elYase: openoffice.org
[09:43] <kitsuneofdoom> elYase: lspci
[09:43] <Perun> kitsuneofdoom: ?
[09:44] <Hillview> nickrud_, I'm not sure if this is what you mean, but I'm getting 'new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 6' from it.
[09:44] <dmb> is there a way update manager can ignore a package?
[09:44] <smallfoot> elYase: OpenOffice
[09:44] <kaos> ty sallfoot
[09:44] <dmb> it wants to upgrade something i want to be at the lower version
[09:44] <kitsuneofdoom> Perun: it's listed as firefox-bin
[09:44] <kaos> smallfoot*
[09:44] <Bluhd> elYase: "Impress" in openoffice is pretty much the same as powerpoint
[09:44] <krekas> guys, do 'instlux' work properly to install ubuntu from windows? or the old and working way of a bootable cd,flash.. is better?
[09:44] <smallfoot> np
[09:44] <Perun> kitsuneofdoom: there is nothing with firefox in the name
[09:44] <harry> dmb: go into synaptic
[09:44] <smallfoot> i need burn an ISO, i need download software? what?
[09:44] <UzzaDead> smallfoot, kde or gnome?
[09:44] <ompaul> !burn | smallfoot
[09:44] <ubotu> smallfoot: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus cd burner (Gnome), gtoaster, xcdroast, cdrecord (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[09:44] <dmb> harry: and lock version?
[09:44] <kitsuneofdoom> Perun: then, some sort of lock problem?
[09:44] <smallfoot> UzzaDead: GNOME
[09:45] <elYase> have you heard about Powerplugs, it is very far from Openoffice
[09:45] <jorik808> how do i stop postgresql from automatically starting up at boot ?
[09:45] <kitsuneofdoom> Ok, so, I had a problem with my touchpad configuration since I installed (and removed) the fglrx driver, and I'm trying to use dpkg-reconfigure to restore the file, but dpkg-reconfigure doesn't work
[09:45] <UzzaDead> see what ubotu said :D
[09:45] <Perun> kitsuneofdoom: and where is the lock file?
[09:45] <elYase> Bluhd, Impress??
[09:45] <harry> dmb: yeah, i think so
[09:45] <vaidas> why I'm getting 100% cpu usage with ati x1600 when switched to beryl?
[09:45] <Bluhd> elYase: yes, install openoffice first
[09:45] <hexoffset> i hate a problem with my ubuntu
[09:45] <kitsuneofdoom> Perun: probably in .mozilla
[09:45] <hexoffset> i have
[09:45] <Perun> kitsuneofdoom: hmm ok I wil search for it
[09:45] <krekas> we all hate problems man :P
[09:45] <dmb> harry: k, thanks, i just had a moment of stupidity there
[09:45] <nullkuhl> guys wat can i use on gnome to send files using bluetooth ??
[09:45] <Bluhd> hexoffset: and?
[09:45] <fxfitz> Is there any way to see if this new PCI card is being recognized by Ubuntu??
[09:45] <hexoffset> the problem is, its just too damn sexy
[09:45] <harry> Dmb: no problem
[09:46] <rory096> /who Nephelauxetic
[09:46] <Bluhd> lol
[09:46] <Nephelauxetic> I'm here
[09:46] <rambo3> jorik808, move /etc/init.d/po* whatever to /etc/init.d/pos_backup or use bum
[09:46] <rory096> hmm
[09:46] <Nephelauxetic> :D
[09:46] <jorik808> bum?
[09:46] <erisco> I need to write to an NTFS partition. How?
[09:46] <Bluhd> hexoffset: in that case, run this: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[09:46] <rambo3> !bum
[09:46] <ubotu> Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[09:46] <UzzaDead> hexoffset, can i suggest a box of kleenex and a locked door with your install?
[09:46] <rory096> i was checking to see if you were identified :o
[09:46] <hexoffset> lol just poppin in to see what sup
[09:46] <hexoffset> UzzaDead: lol
[09:46] <jk2> this is a joke
[09:46] <PriceChild> !ntfs-3g | erisco
[09:46] <ubotu> erisco: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[09:46] <akk> I have a question about php on feisty: feisty had apache 1.3.34 installed automatically, but I can't find a php that'll work with it
[09:46] <whiskey1973> Ok, is it terrible to patch broadcom wireless drivers to inject?
[09:46] <Nephelauxetic> rory096, no I'm a nasty anonymous
[09:46] <jk2> how do you even instal anything
[09:46] <hexoffset> UzzaDead: i might need the industrial size roll
[09:46] <PriceChild> jk2, applications > add/rmeove
[09:46] <erisco> PriceChild, that is one of the options I heard about. Thanks.
[09:46] <akk> all the php5 packages pull in apache2, which gets upset because apache1 is already running
[09:47] <rambo3> jorik808, its a gui with startup services
[09:47] <elYase> Bluhd, its already installed in Ubuntu
[09:47] <nullkuhl> guys wat can i use on gnome to send files using bluetooth ?
[09:47] <UzzaDead> try costco :D
[09:47] <vaidas> why I'm getting 100% cpu usage with ati x1600 when switched to beryl?
[09:47] <PriceChild> erisco, that's the only real option.
[09:47] <Bluhd> elYase: good! now run Openoffice :D
[09:47] <nickrud_> Hillview, in a terminal, type   tail -f /var/log/syslog , and plug in the device. You should get a bunch of lines, paste them on paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[09:47] <cap601> What can I do if I can't get my wifi card to recognise a signal from my router?  It claims there is 0% reception despite it working on Windows.
[09:47] <Bluhd> elYase: it should be in the program list as OpenOffice Presentation
[09:47] <rory096> Nephelauxetic: er, then pms probably wont work well
[09:47] <Hillview> nickrud_, on it.  one moment.
[09:47] <UzzaDead> cap601, that usually means the card isnt working in linux
[09:47] <PriceChild> cap601, tell the people your wireless card model ;)
[09:47] <akk> Is there a PHP that will run with the apache that's installed by default?
[09:47] <hexoffset> I do have a real question though. In Feisty... you can enable desktop effects with compiz... where can I change the effects settings??
[09:47] <nickrud_> Hillview, is this an ipod?
[09:47] <UzzaDead> compiz-manager i think?
[09:48] <rambo3> hexoffset, emerald
[09:48] <hexoffset> there does not seem to be one
[09:48] <UzzaDead> doh
[09:48] <jk2> pricechild does that apply to one I just downloaded a file for ?
[09:48] <krekas> guys, do 'instlux' work properly to install ubuntu from windows? or the old and working way of a bootable cd,flash.. is better?
[09:48] <Hillview> nickrud_, sansa e260, in wmp format
[09:48] <PriceChild> jk2, no
[09:48] <rambo3> hexoffset, #ubuntu-effect btw
[09:48] <elYase> Bluhd, i was looking for a special soft not an ordinary one like powerpoint, or OpenOffice
[09:48] <UzzaDead> i ran beryl but the stability caused me to uninstall it
[09:48] <hexoffset> rambo3: l
[09:48] <Hillview> nickrud_, er, playsforsure mode, rather
[09:48] <hexoffset> k
[09:48] <PriceChild> jk2, it is best to use ubuntu's repositories for software rather than getting it from random places
[09:48] <nickrud_> Hillview, ok
[09:48] <PriceChild> jk2, it maintains the quality and security of the software on your system
[09:48] <jk2> PriceChild: I have proftpd running
[09:48] <rambo3> hexoffset , sorry #ubuntu-effects for xgl
[09:49] <UzzaDead> PriceChild, is quality subjective? :D
[09:49] <hexoffset> UzzaDead: yeah the standard desktop effects work fine for me on my 2.0g geforce 440
[09:49] <jk2> but how do I access the settings
[09:49] <kitsuneofdoom> Ok, so, I had a problem with my touchpad configuration since I installed (and removed) the fglrx driver, and I'm trying to use dpkg-reconfigure to restore the file, but dpkg-reconfigure doesn't work
[09:49] <nickrud_> akk, install libapache2-mod-php5
[09:49] <PriceChild> UzzaDead, um "yes"
[09:49] <UzzaDead> :)
[09:49] <Nephelauxetic> PriceChild, you forgot "in principle"
[09:49] <PriceChild> Nephelauxetic, ?
[09:49] <akk> nickrud_: That pulls in apache2, which won't start because it conflicts with the apache1 that was installed by default.
[09:49] <Nephelauxetic> PriceChild, just kidding
[09:49] <Bluhd> elYase: Well, powerpoint-style programs are as common as you can get, they're pretty much the industry standard
[09:50] <jk2> daemon  sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd start <--- started - what I dont know
[09:50] <jk2> lol
[09:50] <cap601> I'm using some Asus (don't know model name).  On windows it appears to be using a Ralink driver if that helps.
[09:50] <UzzaDead> is there a way i can make linux stop trying to kill me?
[09:50] <sebas_> how should I run crystal space?
[09:50] <nickrud_> akk, that's why I'm using apache2 now myself ;)
[09:50] <jk2> PriceChild:  ?
[09:50] <diminthedam> where can i see the error messages received on bootup (ubuntu 7.04)
[09:50] <kitsuneofdoom> UzzaDead: stop giving your computer firearms.
[09:50] <whiskey1973> anyone have "The Best" link for detailing how to use sudo or at least a good beginners tutorial on terminal usage? I'm just now migrating(slowly) form M$
[09:50] <Hillview> nickrud_, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25145/
[09:51] <akk> nickrud_: :-(  Any idea why they install apache1 by default when they don't offer packages that work with it?
[09:51] <UzzaDead> kitsuneofdoom, i tried it then violently ejected the cd-rom tray causing the disc to fly out just grazing my forehead!
[09:51] <kitsuneofdoom> UzzaDead: is this a dual boot machine?
[09:51] <jk2> ok PriceChild doesnt love me anymore ;x
[09:51] <UzzaDead> kitsuneofdoom, it is
[09:51] <kitsuneofdoom> UzzaDead: and it works under windows?
[09:51] <PriceChild> jk2, ?
[09:52] <UzzaDead> no :)
[09:52] <nickrud_> akk, none
[09:52] <jk2> daemon  sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd start <--- started - what I dont know
[09:52] <nullkuhl> guys wat can i use on gnome to send files using bluetooth ?
[09:52] <UzzaDead> i think its windows influencing linux to try to kill me for not using windows
[09:52] <kitsuneofdoom> UzzaDead: if you have the same problem in windows, I suggest you open up your computer, remove the little power cable, and look into a new cd drive.
[09:53] <UzzaDead> kitsuneofdoom, i was totally joking but thanks for the suggestion :)
[09:53] <UzzaDead> im just having power/shutdown issues at random using linux
[09:53] <UzzaDead> !fsck
[09:53] <ubotu> fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[09:53] <jk2> does proftpd have a GUI or frontend ?
[09:53] <kitsuneofdoom> !dpkg-reconfigure
[09:53] <UzzaDead> is it wise to run fsck on a running filesystem?
[09:54] <kitsuneofdoom> UzzaDead: no.
[09:54] <Agrajag> no
[09:54] <PriceChild> UzzaDead, unmount it first!
[09:54] <UzzaDead> thought so
[09:54] <cap601> Anyone got any ideas for my problem?
[09:54] <jk2> does proftpd have a GUI or frontend PriceChild ?
[09:54] <kitsuneofdoom> dpkg-reconfigure won't run
[09:54] <PriceChild> jk2, yes... I think.
[09:54] <benzs_s> ok guys i just installed beryl and all this weird shit is happening
[09:54] <krekas> what is the difference between instluxNET and instluxCDROM??
[09:54] <benzs_s> we can't stop here this is beryl country
[09:54] <jk2> anyone know how to access the proftpd frontend ?
[09:54] <akk> elYase: What are you looking for?
[09:54] <PriceChild> benzs_s, beryl is alpha software and unstable. Use at your own risk :)
[09:55] <kdubois> theres this application that makes your icons look kinda like mac's icons at the bottom, but i'm blanking on the name... anyone know what the name of what i'm talking about?
[09:55] <PriceChild> jk2, think you have to install it seperately
[09:55] <kmaynard> os x?
[09:55] <benzs_s> of course it's unstable
[09:55] <kitsuneofdoom> kdubois: yes...it's k something dock
[09:55] <benzs_s> my windows can barely stand up
[09:55] <benzs_s> they keep wobbling
[09:55] <elYase> akk, something like powerplugs
[09:55] <jk2> bollards
[09:55] <PriceChild> benzs_s, #ubuntu-effects for support :)
[09:55] <krekas> what is the difference between instluxNET and instluxCDROM?? aren't both suppose to be used to instal ubuntu through windows?
[09:55] <elYase> akk, but for linux
[09:55] <jk2> I have no idea how to install via source
[09:55] <premier_> Hi, how do I force my computer to recheck the time?
[09:55] <akk> elYase: oh, sorry, don't know what powerplugs are
[09:55] <PriceChild> !info gproftpd | jk2
[09:56] <ubotu> jk2: gproftpd: GTK+ configuration tool for proftpd. In component universe, is optional. Version 8.2.8-2ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 162 kB, installed size 580 kB
[09:56] <vaidas> why I'm getting 100% cpu usage with ati x1600 when switched to beryl?
[09:56] <elYase> akk, its a kind fo add ons to improve ppt presentations, efects and stuff like that
[09:56] <nickrud_> Hillview, I get a bunch of kerne stuff instead of that: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25146/ . I have no clue why the network manager thinks it should take control
[09:56] <krekas> hey guys, what is the difference between instluxNET and instluxCDROM?? aren't both suppose to be used to instal ubuntu through windows?
[09:56] <akk> elYase: Ah, okay. There are tons of different presentation programs but maybe nothing quite like that.
[09:56] <mylogic> vaidas: are you using ati's proprietary driver?
[09:56] <kitsuneofdoom> dpkg-reconfigure won't run. I'm on Ubuntu 7.04, just reinstalled two days ago. I ran `dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg` and it's hanging. As root.
[09:56] <PriceChild> krekas, never heard of them
[09:56] <akk> elYase: (and most of them probably don't do a lot of effects)
[09:57] <PriceChild> krekas, there is no supported instillation method of ubuntu from windows
[09:57] <elYase> akk, yea
[09:57] <diminthedam> where can i see the error messages received on bootup (ubuntu 7.04)
[09:57] <kdubois> kibadock. thanks kitsuneofdoom
[09:57] <Hillview> nickrud_, that's odd.  what player have you got?  Maybe I'll just peddle this pos on ebay and get another. ;)
[09:57] <krekas> PriceChild: I got the link from ubuntu website, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows
[09:58] <vaidas> mylogic, I'm using fglrx
[09:58] <PriceChild> krekas, that's alpha/beta and not ready
[09:58] <nickrud_> Hillview, I've only used someone else's ipod.
[09:58] <krekas> alright

[09:58] <UzzaDead> how do i exit "man"
[09:58] <Central> hello everyone, I'm having difficulty running dual screen in ubuntu
[09:58] <nickrud_> Hillview, but I was looking at sansa, Thanks ;)
[09:58] <Central> who can help me?
[09:59] <Hillview> nickrud_, hah.  it's a nice player to use from 'doze.
[09:59] <kitsuneofdoom> dpkg-reconfigure won't run. I'm on Ubuntu 7.04, just reinstalled two days ago. I ran `dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg` and it's hanging. As root.
[09:59] <Hillview> nickrud_, just don't buy the rhapsody version if you do.
[09:59] <nickrud_> Hillview, try googling it, with linux . or linuxhardware.org
[09:59] <nickrud_> UzzaDead, q .
[10:00] <Central> can anyone help me?
[10:00] <jk2> (gproftpd:7968): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed

[10:00] <jk2> lol
[10:00] <UzzaDead> doh, thanks nickrud_
[10:00] <kitsuneofdoom> dpkg-reconfigure won't run. I'm on Ubuntu 7.04, just reinstalled two days ago. I ran `dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg` and it's hanging. As root. Hell, what is with Ubuntu 7.04! This is the first time in two releases I've had this many issues.
[10:00] <nickrud_> UzzaDead, man uses  less  as it's reader, so all those commands work
[10:00] <jk2> PriceChild: (gproftpd:7968): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
[10:00] <jk2>  <--- any idea mate ?
[10:01] <PriceChild> nope sorry
[10:01] <PriceChild> jk2, check launchpad for bugs
[10:01] <PriceChild> jk2, does the application still run?
[10:01] <jk2> launchpad ? yeah it does
[10:01] <KeithWeisshar> why does it take a long time to install ubuntu on a vbox emulator
[10:01] <PriceChild> jk2, then ignore it
[10:01] <PriceChild> KeithWeisshar, virtualisation is always slow
[10:01] <cap601> What can I do if my wifi card claims there is 0% signal from my router but Windows can find it fine?  I have an Asus (no idea on the model) card running a Ralink driver when on windows.  I'm using the 64bit LiveCD if that helps.
[10:01] <KeithWeisshar> i'm installing the free ubuntu cd from shipit into virtualbox
[10:02] <diminthedam> eRUSUL: my system keeps giving me some hddisk block errors on bootup. is there a disk checking app for ubuntu?
[10:02] <KeithWeisshar> i have pentium d 3ghz with 2gb of ram
[10:02] <w1ls0n_> So is there any way to upgrade from edgy to feisty without changing one specific driver?
[10:02] <uberushaximus> I usually experience degraded connectivity as well cap601
[10:02] <jk2> err whats launchpad ? :)
[10:02] <uberushaximus> !launchpad
[10:02] <ubotu> launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's Bounty and Bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/
[10:02] <PriceChild> jk2, ignore it if the application still works
[10:02] <rabby_> although i installed the foomatics driver for my brother hl1250 printer, it only prints strange letters etc. :(

[10:07] <haggard> oh sorry  :p
[10:08] <ben_> beryl killed my computer :<
[10:08] <megasquid> which package to i need to install for the development libraries and compiler?
[10:08] <kitsuneofdoom> MY COMPUTER STOPPED MAKING SENSE.
[10:08] <PriceChild> megasquid, build-essential ?
[10:08] <KeithWeisshar> i only have a cd version of ubuntu
[10:08] <megasquid> PriceChild, thanks leme try that
[10:08] <KeithWeisshar> is there additional packages if i buy the dvd version
[10:09] <KeithWeisshar> shipit only has cd's
[10:09] <PriceChild> KeithWeisshar, why buy? you can download or order for free?
[10:09] <PriceChild> KeithWeisshar, the dvd versino contains the entire "main" and "restricted" repositories...
[10:09] <KeithWeisshar> i only have the free cd version from shipit
[10:10] <diminthedam> eRUSUL: it does that itself actually...but if i were to do it - when in the startup process?
[10:10] <vaidas> can somebody help me? when I select to use the beryl window manager cpu usage goes to 100%
[10:10] <kitsuneofdoom> dpkg-reconfigure doesn't work anymore, something is using 100% of my processor, top as ROOT won't even tell me what it is. My scroller on my laptop stops working, firefox randomly closes, and I reinstalled, which helped until I installed the ati drivers.
[10:10] <PriceChild> KeithWeisshar, i'd advise you to use that
[10:10] <haggard> Central: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaMultiMonitors
[10:10] <PriceChild> KeithWeisshar, you can download any other packages from the net as and when needed
[10:10] <haggard> !xinerama| Central
[10:10] <ubotu> Central: xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead
[10:10] <Central> haggard thank you!
[10:10] <apfel> Anyone using the Samsung q40 notebook?
[10:11] <KeithWeisshar> does the dvd version install the entire main and restricted at once
[10:11] <PriceChild> KeithWeisshar, no, it just has them on so you can download them rfom the cd instead of the internet
[10:11] <erUSUL> diminthedam: you should do that from a livecd as filesystem must be unmounted
[10:12] <KeithWeisshar> does the dvd include nvidia drivers
[10:14] <mvp__> hey ppl
[10:14] <mvp__> ppl i need help
[10:14] <vaidas> why does cpu usage go to 100% when I select beryl as my window manager?

[10:16] <Pozaro> anyone know how to install a package I just downloaded cedaga
[10:17] <mwagner> dpkg -i filename
[10:17] <erUSUL> !cedega | Pozaro
[10:17] <ubotu> Pozaro: cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega
[10:17] <smallfoot> I made "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx", how do i uninstall it?
[10:17] <mvp__> hey, can anyone here tell me how to disable themes tipografia?
[10:17] <Central> haggard I'm not getting it to work...
[10:18] <crdlb> smallfoot, rerun with remove instead of install
[10:18] <Pozaro> whats better cedega or wine
[10:18] <smallfoot> crdlb:  "suda apt-get remove nvidia-glx" ?
[10:18] <lynucs> Pozaro: cedega..
[10:18] <crdlb> smallfoot, why do you want to uninstall it?
[10:18] <kingbinary> hi, does anyone know how to make it so compiz loads automatically when i log in?  i have to do it from terminal now
[10:18] <mwagner> Pozaro: Cedega if you want do do gaming.
[10:18] <smallfoot> crdlb: cuz i wanna use Envy instead
[10:18] <Pozaro> how do i install it
[10:18] <crdlb> smallfoot, why?
[10:18] <lmosher> What's the best filesystem to use when going between windows and linux (portable HDD)
[10:18] <Pozaro> i just downloaded it

[10:18] <lynucs> lmosher: fat32
[10:19] <smallfoot> crdlb: cuz i have GeForce 8600, and Ubuntu repostiry has old version of device driver that dont support this card
[10:19] <lmosher> lynucs, mkfs -t fat32 /dev/sdb1 is the correct command, yes?
[10:19] <mwagner> Pozaro: open up a terminal
[10:19] <Pozaro> k
[10:19] <Pozaro> its open
[10:19] <crdlb> smallfoot, I see, then yes
[10:19] <lynucs> lmosher: you could just use gparted
[10:19] <mwagner> change to the directory where you installed cedega
[10:19] <apo> irc://irc.rizon.net/mob
[10:20] <lmosher> lynucs, lol I forgot about that. Already made the partition w/ fdisk... couldn't remember how mkfs worked

[10:20] <bharat862004> how can i install a codec to play avi files
[10:21] <lmosher> bharat862004, You probably need the correct avi codec. Ubuntuquide.org has a lot of FAQs, including an in-depth description of this.
[10:21] <mwagner> I am using Feisty Fawn and I cannot even run "oo-presenting-Kubuntu" from the "Examples" directory without any problems. Open Office always crashes when I try to exit the presentation. Could you confirm this?

[10:22] <skulrid> after loading ubuntu I get an error about XSERVER, so I think I have to configure that xserver or XORG thing rigth? but how do I do it from de comand lines??
[10:22] <jrib> bharat862004: you don't need to be registered.  What client are you using?
[10:22] <Pozaro> ok the name of the file i donloaded is called fbk-repack.cedega.6.0
[10:22] <Pozaro> how do i install it
[10:22] <jk2> hmm
[10:22] <bharat862004> jrib: gaim
[10:22] <jrib> bharat862004: I think you should have a new tab from ubotu

[10:23] <jk2> anyone know how to change the home directory in gproftpd

[10:23] <Pozaro> k
[10:23] <mvp__> can anyone tell me pls
[10:23] <jrib> !helpme | mvp__
[10:23] <ubotu> mvp__: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:23] <boabsta> skulrid, or use xorgconfig
[10:23] <lmosher> bharat862004, visit that website. It will tell you everything, plus give you a lot of tips you didn't even know you wanted to know.
[10:23] <mvp__> how to disable tipografy themes
[10:23] <bharat862004> jrib: has its already their a new tab for ubotu
[10:23] <skulrid> nickrud: that will take me to that configuration fo resolution, mouse, screen, keyboard etc??
[10:23] <lmosher> bharat862004, the reason is b/c you need to install a lot of things and I don't remember them all.
[10:23] <jrib> bharat862004: ok, that should contain the information you want
[10:24] <piv> lo there all
[10:24] <cap601> What can I do if my wifi card claims there is 0% signal from my router but Windows can find it fine?  I have an Asus (no idea on the model) card running a Ralink driver when on windows.  I'm using the 64bit LiveCD if that helps.
[10:24] <nickrud> skulrid, the -phigh will try to figure all that out for you. If it doesn't work, try again without -phigh and it'll ask you all the details
[10:24] <piv> hello
[10:24] <bharat862004> lmosher: jrib ok let be check out and will tell u :)
[10:24] <amonkey> whats the smallest way to take an image of a partition? it's only 20% full
[10:24] <shedman> does anyone know about manually configuring the xorg.conf file?
[10:24] <skulrid> nickrud thnks ;)
[10:25] <ubuntuNoobus> can anyone help me with a setup problem with ubuntu feisty fawn?
[10:25] <mwagner> Pozaro: The way I used to install cedega was to download a Debian package and then to install it with "dpkg -i cegeda-version.deb"
[10:25] <shedman> ubuntuNoobus: what's the problem?
[10:25] <boabsta> shedman, http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xml is a good start
[10:25] <davor> shedman: have a looka t XF86Config or XF86Cfg
[10:25] <Pozaro> ahh
[10:25] <lmosher> what's the command to restore the mount state in the fstab? (i.e. I have two sda1's mounted for some reason and I want it to re-mount my sdb)
[10:25] <str8lazy_> Could anyone help me with configuring my system/kernel to access all of the RAM that I have installed?
[10:25] <zaggynl> Where are the iptables rules stored by default on ubuntu 7.04?
[10:26] <shedman> thanks, I wrote a new xorg.conf but it wouldn't work
[10:26] <Pozaro> the one i downlloaded has a .zip xt
[10:26] <Pozaro> .zip exension
[10:26] <ubuntuNoobus> (shedman) the cd starts up and lets me select what i want to do but if i select startup/install it hangs
[10:26] <ubuntuNoobus> with both 64 and 32bit
[10:26] <jrib> !iptables > zaggynl (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:26] <Bakefy> Twice now my hard drive is no longer mounted after I updated my ubuntu.  Anyone have any idea why this keeps happening?
[10:26] <jrib> zaggynl: no where, there are no rules by default
[10:26] <nickrud> shedman, man xorg.conf. There's also a bunch of man pages referenced at the bottom of that one, for vid cards, input devices, etc
[10:26] <zaggynl> jrib, thanks
[10:26] <boabsta> lmosher, mount -a i think
[10:26] <mwagner> Pozaro: I haven't used Cedega for quite a while. Did you download it from Transgaming?
[10:26] <Nephelauxetic> ubuntuNoobus, use the alternate installer cd
[10:26] <Pozaro> nope
[10:26] <Nephelauxetic> 32 bit
[10:26] <Pozaro> from a torrent
[10:27] <ubuntuNoobus> is it easy to use or is it all command line?
[10:27] <nickrud> shedman, do the dpkg-reconfigure thing and then edit to taste, it's much less painful
[10:27] <Nephelauxetic> ubuntuNoobus, it's like the normal GUI but you use it with the arrows and enter
[10:27] <str8lazy_> Could anyone help me with configuring my system/kernel to access all of the RAM that I have installed?
[10:27] <mwagner> Pozaro: Maybe you can try "unzip" on that file.
[10:27] <Veinor> Whenever I send a playlist to my iPod in GTKpod or Amarok, it says it was sent, but I can't access it. It's still there when I reconnect; it's like a 'phantom zone'; like right now it says I have one called 'heavy', but amarok says I have one called 'top songs' as well that isn't showing.
[10:27] <Nephelauxetic> I think it's almost easier than the normal installer
[10:28] <shedman> ubuntuNoobus: have you tried the alternate CD?
[10:28] <Keiser> Hey all.  Anybody had any luck with nVidia GeForce 6200 OC cards?
[10:28] <ubuntuNoobus> ok the other thing is i found a thread saying yto type in a command after prerssing f6 it begins irqpoll and trhat way allows me to install but i can't access my xp install with grub
[10:28] <Pozaro> k just unzipped it
[10:28] <nuked_omen> the normal install cd never works.. i learned to just directly download the alternate install cd
[10:28] <ubuntuNoobus> not tried it yet
[10:29] <Pozaro> now i have a .deb cpkg, and .trz
[10:29] <ubuntuNoobus> ok np i'll give it a try now
[10:29] <mwagner> okay cool.
[10:29] <ubuntuNoobus> ty guys
[10:29] <nickrud> nuked_omen, +1
[10:29] <lmosher> I just created a fat32 partition, how do I change the volume lable?
[10:29] <nuked_omen> nuked_omen: +1?
[10:29] <nickrud> nuked_omen, I agree 101%
[10:29] <mwagner> I trust you downloaded it from a legitimate source. Now try "sudo dpkg -i cedega.deb"
[10:30] <nuked_omen> oh ok :)
[10:30] <boabsta> nuked_omen, i dont - its always worked for me from 5.04
[10:30] <jk2> anyone help me with proftpd ?
[10:30] <lmosher> Also, again, how do I mount/unmount drives based on the fstab? How do I re-initialize the fstab?
[10:30] <shedman> UbuntuNoobus: I'd say it's definitely worth trying, the only thing is if you've got a slow internet connection it'll take a while to download
[10:30] <jk2> how do you set the home directory anyone ?
[10:30] <nuked_omen> boabsta: it never worked for me
[10:30] <nickrud> lmosher, you'd add the correct line to /etc/fstab, then invoke  sudo mount -a
[10:30] <mwagner> jk2: what do you mean?
[10:30] <boabsta> nuked_omen, what went wrong?
[10:30] <ubuntuNoobus> is it best to use 32 bit or 64 bit ? i'm running an amd 4200 dual core
[10:31] <ubuntuNoobus> x64
[10:31] <jk2> mwagner: set up an user account - now how do I tell the program what folders that user can access ?
[10:31] <nuked_omen> boabsta: my graphics card was not supported.. it's always the case
[10:31] <jk2> /var/ftp is all that it seems to point to
[10:31] <nickrud> boabsta, for me gparted wrote a mangled partition table, I had to use fdisk to repair
[10:31] <mwagner> it's done using "chmod-ing the folders".
[10:31] <Nephelauxetic> ubuntuNoobus, 32 for noobs!!!
[10:31] <ubuntuNoobus> lol kk
[10:31] <Nephelauxetic> you won't get any benefit from 64 anyway
[10:31] <Pozaro> lol all i had to do was click t is instlling now
[10:32] <ubuntuNoobus> i foubd the same with vista
[10:32] <boabsta> nuked_omen, either way its strange - have you tweaked stuff in your BIOS?
[10:32] <nuked_omen> boabsta: i wonder why developers insist on you to install from GUI when the live cd doesn't have good hardware support
[10:32] <Veinor> jk2: It's done via chmod; what're you trying to do?
[10:32] <jk2> chmod-ing ;|
[10:32] <nuked_omen> boabsta: no
[10:32] <davor> jk2: via chmod or directly in the passwd file
[10:32] <nuked_omen> boabsta: i don't think it has to do with the bios
[10:32] <jk2> well I am setting up user accounts
[10:32] <nuked_omen> i just can't run the install program
[10:32] <atime> #reddragon.pl
[10:32] <jk2> wtf is chmod ?
[10:32] <Veinor> jk2: OK, and?
[10:32] <KimmoKe> anyone set up nullmailer?
[10:32] <nuked_omen> because i can't log in
[10:32] <boabsta> nuked_omen, nae luck ;p
[10:33] <nuked_omen> because of hardware incompatibility
[10:33] <Veinor> jk2: chmod is a command run in the terminal that modifies the access permission of files.
[10:33] <Veinor> and folders
[10:33] <Nephelauxetic> nuked_omen, first thing I got on both CDs was kernel panic because ot acpi :)
[10:33] <mwagner> jk2: it's setting privileges for "user, group and others"
[10:33] <puller> need help customizing a beryl animation to make it only work on certain things....
[10:33] <jk2> ok - how does that fit into gprpftpd ?
[10:33] <ubuntuNoobus> thats what i got
[10:33] <boabsta> maybe i just need a new PC :)
[10:33] <davor> jk2: most useradd-utilities ask you where you'd like to put the users' home directory.
[10:33] <boabsta> everything seems to be supported for me
[10:33] <jk2> ok
[10:33] <ubuntuNoobus> kerbal panic
[10:33] <jk2> so how does that command line work ?
[10:33] <ubuntuNoobus> kernal panic
[10:34] <puller> crdlb, hey can u help me tweak soemthign in beryl?
[10:34] <crdlb> puller, #ubuntu-effects
[10:34] <jk2> !chmod
[10:34] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[10:35] <Veinor> Whenever I send a playlist to my iPod in GTKpod or Amarok, it says it was sent, but I can't access it. It's still there when I reconnect; it's like a 'phantom zone'; like right now it says I have one called 'heavy', but amarok says I have one called 'top songs' as well that isn't showing.
[10:35] <Nephelauxetic> ubuntuNoobus, there plenty of reasons for this. "noapic" kernel param fixed it for me
[10:35] <centrex> Does anyone know how to change an ubuntu distribution to debian without reinstalling?  Or any documentation on doing so?
[10:35] <Bakefy> What command will show me what drives are detected but not always mounted?
[10:35] <davor> jk2: have a look at this thread. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79588
[10:35] <erUSUL> Bakefy: blkid
[10:35] <Veinor> Bakefy: look at /etc/fstab for the drives without 'auto' or with 'noauto' in them?
[10:35] <S0me1> centrex: yes
[10:36] <luisbg> where is the folder with the system fonts?
[10:36] <S0me1> centrex: try sudo apt-get install kubuntu-dektop
[10:36] <nickrud> luisbg, most of them are in /usr/share/fonts
[10:36] <ubuntu_> how can i take an image of a partition (other than dd)?
[10:36] <KimmoKe> what should i use if i just want to receive mail and forward it straight to my gmail?
[10:36] <centrex> S0me1, What?
[10:37] <kitche> ubuntu_: you can use partimage if you wish
[10:37] <nuked_omen> having both kde and gnome is a waste of space
[10:37] <davor> Bakefy: fdisk -l
[10:37] <Bakefy> Veinor, I think that when I applied my last updates something changed... fstab is not working.
[10:37] <nuked_omen> unless you got 100+gb hd
[10:37] <centrex> S0me1, I wanted to change this installation of ubuntu to debian, not kubuntu
[10:37] <davor> Bakefy: sudo fdisk -l, actually.
[10:37] <S0me1> this is example
[10:37] <nuked_omen> one of those + fluxbox is cool though
[10:37] <nickrud> centrex, you'd end up replacing every deb anyway, why not reinstall?
[10:38] <Central> is it possible to optimize beryl and dualview?
[10:38] <Bakefy> thanks davor!  thats what I was looking for
[10:38] <davor> Bakefy: what I told you to do should work, despite fstab. you might have to update your fstab-file manually, tough.
[10:38] <S0me1> centrex: int you  need reinstall it if you want Debain
[10:38] <davor> Bakefy: happy to help. :-)
[10:38] <smallfoot> dude, i installed Envy
[10:38] <centrex> nickrud, The same reason I had to install unbuntu to begin with:  Work gave me this machine with no cdrom or floppy, and only a pxe install menu with only ubuntu as the choice.
[10:38] <smallfoot> it downloaded drivers for me
[10:38] <ubuntuNoobus> (nepheleuxetic) what was it you typed, i tried something like what your saying and it allowed me to startup and install but i wasn't given a option for grub and when it rebooted xp wasn't showing
[10:38] <smallfoot> GeForce 8600 does work in ubuntu!
[10:38] <smallfoot> i trying out desktop effects
[10:38] <nuked_omen> i think the beryl project died
[10:38] <smallfoot> and this shizzle is making me wet
[10:38] <KeithWeisshar> is the free shipit cd the same cd used by dell
[10:38] <nickrud> centrex, look for info on debootstrap
[10:38] <smallfoot> nuked_omen: beryl and compiz merged
[10:38] <nuked_omen> only compiz is growing now
[10:39] <ubuntu_> kitche, will that image be the size of the partition or just how much space it actually needs?
[10:39] <nuked_omen> smallfoot: i see
[10:39] <smallfoot> does ubuntu use beryl or compiz?
[10:39] <Central> can I optimize beryl with dual view?
[10:39] <KeithWeisshar> is the free ubuntu cd the same cd that comes with dells with ubuntu preloaded
[10:39] <kitche> ubuntu_: the size of the partition not how much is used
[10:39] <nephish> hello there all
[10:39] <sn0> KeithWeisshar dell comes with a recovery partition
[10:39] <fxfitz> How does one go about setting up lirc??
[10:39] <kitche> ubuntu_: it's sort of a open source version of ghost
[10:39] <sn0> that is stored on the disk
[10:40] <nuked_omen> smallfoot: i have both on mine
[10:40] <sn0> they do not include a cd at least on launch
[10:40] <nephish> testing new irc client, yall read me?
[10:40] <smallfoot> does ubuntu use beryl or compiz?
[10:40] <davor> fxfitz: what exactly do you want to set up?
[10:40] <davor> nephish: yes.
[10:40] <ubuntu_> kitche, know anything that would just take up the size of the data? this is a "clean install" image, so it's mostly empty
[10:40] <KeithWeisshar> does dell store ubuntu on a recovery partition
[10:40] <crimsun> smallfoot: by default it ships with compiz.
[10:40] <sn0> yes KeithWeisshar
[10:40] <smallfoot> crimsun: okay
[10:40] <fxfitz> davor, A PVR-150 remote to use with MythTV
[10:40] <KeithWeisshar> is it possible to backup the recovery partition
[10:40] <sn0> KeithWeisshar see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2764621
[10:40] <nickrud> centrex, http://www.burgettsys.com/stories/59455/ came up on a search, there's probably more
[10:40] <sherlock> where get beryl
[10:40] <sherlock> &
[10:40] <sherlock> ?
[10:40] <kitche> ubuntu_: not really since there is more then the data on a partiton like if you want to get the MBR also which partimage also grabs
[10:41] <nuked_omen> sherlock: synaptic
[10:41] <ubuntuNoobus> (nepheleuxetic) what was it you typed, i tried something like what your saying and it allowed me to startup and install but i wasn't given a option for grub and when it rebooted xp wasn't showing
[10:41] <ubuntu_> kitche, guess i'm gonna have to go grab acronis. was hoping for something free. thanks though
[10:41] <sherlock> i want beryl
[10:41] <nuked_omen> ubuntuNoobus: wasn't showing at all in the boot menu?
[10:41] <sherlock> i'm russian
[10:41] <nuked_omen> sherlock: synaptic
[10:41] <davor> fxfitz: ie@desmond.ccnmtl.columbia.edu) has quit: "Ex-Chat"
 kitche, will that image be the size of the partition or just how
[10:41] <davor> 	  much space it actually needs?
[10:41] <davor> ERC> fxfitz: sorry. ie@desmond.ccnmtl.columbia.edu) has quit: "Ex-Chat"
 kitche, will that image be the size of the partition or just how
[10:42] <nuked_omen> sherlock: good for you, use synaptic
[10:42] <ubuntuNoobus> nope only showinf the 3 ubuntu options
[10:42] <sherlock> where is it?
[10:42] <davor> 	  much space it actually needs?
[10:42] <kitche> ubuntu_: if you just want the data just use tar
[10:42] <davor> ERC> ie@desmond.ccnmtl.columbia.edu) has quit: "Ex-Chat"
[10:42] <Nephelauxetic> ubuntuNoobus, you have to type "e" in grub and then edit the line and add "noapic"
 kitche, will that image be the size of the partition or just how
[10:42] <centrex> nickrud, I'm reading up on debootstrap, thank you.
[10:42] <davor> 	  much space it actually needs?
[10:42] <davor> ERC> fxfitz: look over here http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/PVR150_Remote
[10:42] <George2> is there a quick way of adding resolution options to the desktop aside from modifying the X config file. (the max is 1280x1024)?
[10:42] <Nephelauxetic> sorry I can't describe...
[10:42] <Pozaro> if something is in my package manager it means its installed right ?
[10:42] <davor> oops, sorry about that.
[10:42] <Central> how do I get codecs for playing movies?
[10:42] <nuked_omen> sherlock: System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager
[10:42] <fxfitz> davor, Thank you!
[10:42] <sn0> Central opening the movie should prompt codec installation automatically
[10:42] <Nephelauxetic> ubuntuNoobus, or F6... something like that... it's written
[10:42] <davor> fxfitz: you are welcome.
[10:42] <nickrud> centrex, if you'd mentioned the pxe and no cdrom or floppy, it'd have been quicker ;)
[10:42] <nuked_omen> Pozaro: if it has a green box beside it, it is installed
[10:42] <Pozaro> thanks
[10:42] <sherlock> thank, dude:)
[10:43] <Pozaro> ok i have cedaga installed but it want run
[10:43] <graveson1> aptoncd is a tool to backup all my install packages. Why are all the packages installed not in the var/apt/cache directory ?
[10:43] <nuked_omen> np
[10:43] <fxfitz> davor, Aw. I'm guessing Ubuntu won't do this automatically? :(
[10:43] <nuked_omen> Pozaro: what does it say?
[10:43] <ubuntuNoobus> ok ty i'll see if i can re-install now
[10:43] <jk2> davor I think i get almost get this user malarky on ubuntu
[10:43] <nuked_omen> graveson1: you probably cleared the cache?
[10:43] <jk2> my second day nixxing !
[10:43] <Pozaro> i just right click ona game and hit dedega but it doesnt do anythign
[10:44] <graveson1> nuked_omen: is there a way to get this back ?
[10:44] <nuked_omen> Pozaro: it's not that simple
[10:44] <Veinor> Whenever I send a playlist to my iPod in GTKpod or Amarok, it says it was sent, but I can't access it. It's still there when I reconnect; it's like a 'phantom zone'; like right now it says I have one called 'heavy', but amarok says I have one called 'top songs' as well that isn't showing.
[10:44] <jrib> Pozaro: why not use the cedega support you are paying for?
[10:44] <nuked_omen> Pozaro: read more about cedega.. i would teach here you but the ops won't like it
[10:44] <sherlock> i have not beryl in synaptic
[10:44] <Pozaro> :(
[10:44] <nuked_omen> graveson1: not that i know of
[10:44] <Pozaro> can you pm it to me
[10:44] <ubuntuNoobus> is it possible and or easier to just setup windows bootloader to do the job of grub for me?
[10:45] <nuked_omen> sherlock: you might have to enable some repositories
[10:45] <nuked_omen> !beryl|sherlock
[10:45] <ubotu> sherlock: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[10:45] <davor> fxfitz: have a look at this guide for ubuntu-specific things. this is one of the few things it wont do automatically, but still. it's fairly simple. http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/LIRC_on_Ubuntu_Edgy_Eft
[10:45] <davor> jk2: cool. you keep at it!
[10:45] <jrib> Pozaro: #cedega is all about cedega support
[10:45] <krekas> hey guys, is this the live ubuntu or the installer? http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[10:46] <PriceChild> krekas, the desktop cd installs as well
[10:46] <jk2> I dont know wtf the kernal is but I hope he has some decent fried chicken with the amount of typing I am doing !
[10:46] <jrib> krekas: it's both on one iso
[10:46] <cap601> What can I do if my wifi card claims there is 0% signal from my router but Windows can find it fine?  I have an Asus (no idea on the model) card running a Ralink driver when on windows.  I'm using the 64bit LiveCD if that helps.
[10:46] <Pozaro> thanks
[10:46] <degreseven> krekas: the live cd environment has an installer shortcut on the desktop
[10:46] <Led_Zeppelin> hello, anyone here using openoffice? Their spell checker does not seem to work
[10:46] <sherlock> thank you
[10:47] <KeithWeisshar> what happens if something happens to the recovery partition
[10:47] <krekas> because it seams that it doens install and gets stuch for ages, I can only see the mouse moving after booting
[10:47] <degreseven> Led_Zeppelin: you have to install the spell checker package... hang on let me find it
[10:47] <KeithWeisshar> is it possible to get the cd for the dell installed ubuntu
[10:47] <jrib> Led_Zeppelin: make sure you have the right language chosen in the options, it needs to have an "abc" with a checkmark
[10:47] <nuked_omen> sherlock: who me?
[10:48] <Led_Zeppelin> jrib: yep, It does not even prompt me to select a language
[10:48] <George2> is there a quick way of adding resolution options to the desktop aside from modifying the X config file. (the max is 1280x1024)?
[10:48] <kitche> KeithWeisshar: ask Dell we wouldn't know that
[10:48] <edmondt> quick question... is there a tray icon for XChat? if I close the program i want to display it on the tray notification instead of exiting XChat
[10:48] <nickrud> George2, no.
[10:48] <sherlock> nuked_omen: thank you
[10:48] <jrib> Led_Zeppelin: tools -> options -> languages
[10:49] <nuked_omen> sherlock: welcome
[10:49] <Led_Zeppelin> jrib: yep
[10:49] <KeithWeisshar> does dell include an iso image of ubuntu that can be burned to cd
[10:49] <George2> nickrud: kthx
[10:49] <sherlock> ok
[10:49] <jrib> Led_Zeppelin: what language is chosen?
[10:49] <sherlock> who are you&
[10:49] <sherlock> ?
[10:49] <nuked_omen> azul
[10:49] <adaptr> chtulhu
[10:50] <sbalneav> KeithWeisshar: Best bet would be to talk to Dell tech support, and ask them.
[10:50] <cap601> Anyone?
[10:50] <jrib> Led_Zeppelin: there are really two settings it seems, "default language" under language settings and spell check language under "writing aids" -> edit... with Spellchecker selected
[10:50] <jrib> !please > cap601 (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:50] <Led_Zeppelin> jrib: its selected as "English (USA)"
[10:51] <jrib> Led_Zeppelin: and it has the letters "abc" with a checkmark on the left?
[10:51] <degreseven> can anyone help me get a samba share mounted? The fstab entry i used in another distro doesnt work for me. I am able to browse the share using smb://path, but i can't mount it

[10:51] <INTit> heyho
[10:51] <Led_Zeppelin> jrib: no
[10:52] <Shankysv87> like if i sign back in, all my programs start up from the beginning again, but they all open again at least
[10:52] <frolle> I have this line, how do i have to change it to use it in fstab? sudo mount -t smbfs //10.0.0.8/FROLLE /media/frolle -o username=Administrator%frolle
[10:52] <jrib> Led_Zeppelin: then degreseven was correct, you need to install myspell-en-us
[10:52] <Led_Zeppelin> jrib: do I need a package for spellchecking?
[10:53] <nullkuhl> guys  i have 2 question ,, how to send a file using blue tooth in gnome,, and how to change the booting splash of ubuntu using usplash
[10:53] <Veinor> can anybody help me with my iPod problem?
[10:53] <kitche> !usplash | nullkuhl
[10:53] <ubotu> nullkuhl: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[10:53] <jrib> Veinor: I probably cannot, but you need to state the problem
[10:53] <akari> join #vaidas_beryl
[10:53] <akari> Ups
[10:54] <Veinor> Whenever I send a playlist to my iPod in GTKpod or Amarok, it says it was sent, but I can't access it. It's still there when I reconnect; it's like a 'phantom zone', where gtkpod and amarok can see it but the iPod itself can't.
[10:54] <blue42> huh, is ubotu a bot?
[10:54] <UNDERsoN> whre I can download DVD image

[10:58] <smamoune> hiii
[10:58] <crdlb> !find libXext.so.6 | ruben-
[10:59] <ubotu> ruben-: Package/file libxext.so.6 does not exist in feisty
[10:59] <ruben-> !find libXext.so | ruben-
[10:59] <Wips> How do I open folder from root? Something like nautirus, dont remember the name :O
[10:59] <barnydan> anyone in here play BF1942?  I can't install the linux server in ubuntu.  http://battlefield2.filefront.com/file/Battlefield_1942_full_linux_Server;23188
[10:59] <sbalneav> ruben-: libxext6 I beleive
[10:59] <jrib> ruben-: you can use packages.ubuntu.com or apt-file on your own system to find out, but sbalneav is right
[11:00] <UNDERsoN> Is there installation dvd of ubuntu not live but alternate
[11:00] <nickrud> Wips, to run the file manager as root, gksudo nautilus <-- dangerous
[11:00] <Veinor> ugh, end of my rope here.
[11:00] <Bluhd> Where should I set CVSROOT to be in Ubuntu?
[11:00] <ruben-> jrib: apt-file doesn't work
[11:01] <Wips> nickrud: Hi Again. You gave me a command to insert to fstab once. about how do change the rights on the vfat harddisk.. but I cant figure it out
[11:01] <barnydan> anyone know why I can't install bf1942 linux server in ubuntu but I can in other linux distro's?
[11:01] <jrib> ruben-: did you do 'sudo apt-file update' first and then do 'apt-file search libXext.so.6'?
[11:01] <ruben-> "apt-file" isn't a command
[11:01] <Shankysv87> i'm having a problem with idling and signing off
[11:01] <jrib> ruben-: you need to install it
[11:02] <smallfoot> zomg, this compiz 3d stuff made me cream my pants
[11:02] <smallfoot> but then i wanted to log out
[11:02] <smallfoot> and my computer froze
[11:02] <smallfoot> and i had to shut down it by switch on power supply
[11:02] <nickrud> Wips, defaults,utf8,umask=007,gid=46 are the options you'd put on the vfat partition
[11:02] <Bluhd> smallfoot: holding the power button for 5 secs didn't work?
[11:02] <smallfoot> idk, i didnt know that was possible
[11:02] <smallfoot> lol
[11:03] <smallfoot> but ctrl-alt+del didnt work
[11:03] <smallfoot> numlock, caps lock, scroll lock, didnt work either
[11:03] <Bluhd> smallfoot: holding the power button is a hardware function, so it works all the time
[11:03] <nickrud> smallfoot, I had the same issue myself: for some reason if I did sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm every time I logged in, I could log out.
[11:03] <Lilacor> anyone having trouble reaching google?
[11:03] <smallfoot> ubntu kinda less stable than windows xp lol
[11:03] <barnydan> anyone want to try and install bf1942 linux server on their ubuntu box to see what the problems might be?  http://battlefield2.filefront.com/file/Battlefield_1942_full_linux_Server;23188  there is the download address.
[11:04] <smallfoot> atlerast windows gives bluescreen so you know something wrong
[11:04] <Bluhd> Where should I set CVSROOT to be in Ubuntu? I'm new to using CVS and I figure I should get some practice right now
[11:04] <smallfoot> on linux, it just freeze and gives you the silent treatment
[11:04] <Netham45> can someone press alt+prnt scrn+b for me? it's not working for me.
[11:04] <SpeakerMania> Is it possible to scan my Windows drive for problems with Ubuntu?
[11:04] <Netham45> it's supposed to do something with the kernel.
[11:04] <ipx> Sometimes my sound dont work in games, but then a reboot is enough to get it back. But not this time? How many reboots i now make, i still have no sound in whatever game i try. MP3s in XMMS work tho. Any thoughts?
[11:04] <Netham45> LOL
[11:05] <Netham45> XD
[11:05] <vip3rousmango> SpeakerMania: Yes, there is, I saw a tutorial on google. Search for Accessing Windows with Ubuntu
[11:05] <Bluhd> hehehe
[11:05] <Bluhd> Netham45: I'm surprised that worked
[11:05] <SpeakerMania> thanks
[11:05] <Netham45> wow
[11:05] <Netham45> that was cheap
[11:05] <vip3rousmango> yeah, no problem
[11:05] <jrib> Bluhd: export CVSROOT=whatever
[11:05] <Pozaro> !!!! you have to pay for cedega  :(
[11:05] <Netham45> lol
[11:05] <sbalneav> Bluhd: What are you doing, learning a SCCS?  If so, bazaar or Subversion would be better choices.
[11:05] <Netham45> kde2525, sorry, that was cheap.
[11:05] <Bluhd> sbalneav: I'm trying to use Anjuta and its CVS capability with the Sourceforge servers
[11:05] <kde2525> what do you mean?
[11:05] <Bluhd> Netham45: or this:
[11:05] <Netham45> press alt+prnt scrn+b
[11:05] <Pozaro> this sux
[11:06] <Bluhd> what's the command for exiting the program in IRC?
[11:06] <jrib> Bluhd: sourceforge does svn as well
[11:06] <Netham45> bluhd: /quit
[11:06] <Bluhd> Netham45: :P
[11:06] <Lilacor> Bluhd: /quit
[11:06] <Bluhd> LOL
[11:06] <Cybe> Does anyone know a good program to verify a big proxy list with? So they will be sorted after the best ping etc.?
[11:06] <Bluhd> we got one
[11:06] <Bluhd> I think
[11:06] <Shankysv87> my some reason, my os will randomly go to a logged out state, however all my programs will continue to run, however when i "sign in" my programs start over but stay going. What is going on?
[11:06] <sbalneav> Bluhd: Well, probably best bet would be to create something in your home directory, i.e. cvsstuff, then CVSROOT=/home/Bluhd/cvsstuff
[11:06] <jrib> Bluhd: please don't do that here, try to stay on topic
[11:06] <Bluhd> there was a blank quit message, looks suspicious :P
[11:06] <Bluhd> jrib: k
[11:06] <nullkuhl> guys how to send a file using bluetooth in gnome ,, wat tools to use or get ?
[11:07] <smallfoot> i noticed that in Slackware, ALOT of apps are installed by default, but in Ubuntu, very few are, no XMMS, no VLC, no MPlayer
[11:07] <Bluhd> sbalneav: does this directory maintain every cvs repository present in the system?
[11:07] <jrib> smallfoot: they are easy to install with APT
[11:07] <barnydan> anyone want to try and install bf1942 linux server on their ubuntu box to see what the problems might be?  http://battlefield2.filefront.com/file/Battlefield_1942_full_linux_Server;23188  there is the download address.  Please!?!?
[11:07] <adaptr> smallfoot installing 100 programs takes about 10 minutes, so what is your damage ?
[11:07] <ipx> Sometimes my sound dont work in games, but then a reboot is enough to get it back. But not this time? How many reboots i now make, i still have no sound in whatever game i try. MP3s in XMMS work tho. Any thoughts?
[11:07] <sbalneav> Bluhd: Probably OT for this channel.  But yes, anything you check out will be rooted there.
[11:08] <nullkuhl> guys how to send a file using bluetooth in gnome ,, wat tools to use or get ?
[11:08] <barnydan> BF1942 is an old game,  the linux server runs on other distro's but not my lovely Ubuntu!!!
[11:08] <barnydan> What gives!~!
[11:08] <vip3rousmango> nullkuhl: there are a bunch of bluetooth apps in the Add/Remove programs list, look there.
[11:08] <sbalneav> Instead of asking us to download 100 megs of stuff, why don't you tell us what error you're getting?
[11:08] <nullkuhl> mostly kde i think
[11:08] <nullkuhl> vip3rousmango: ..
[11:09] <vip3rousmango> sbalneav: ok one sec, let me look for bluetooth for KDE environment
[11:09] <vip3rousmango> er.. wrong name =\
[11:09] <vip3rousmango> nullkuhl:
[11:09] <M3L> I have two soundcards which one of them is external (Hercules Dj Console) the default currently is the internal one and I would like to change it to the external, how can I do this ? thanks
[11:10] <sbalneav> vip3rousmango: Understandable.  Our names are real close :)
[11:10] <nullkuhl> vip3rousmango: i want bluetooth stuff for gnome not kde
[11:10] <nullkuhl> i dun have kde
[11:10] <barnydan> ok, I install bf1942 linux server, it uncompresses, than asks if I accept the agreement, I type accept and I get this.  Please type 'accept' or 'decline': accept

[11:10] <smallfoot> such a shame, since XMMS is nice
[11:10] <jk2> ok
[11:10] <jk2> whats wrong with this command
[11:10] <jrib> barnydan: I assume that is because your script calls /bin/sh and has bashisms.  Update it to use /bin/bash instead
[11:11] <jrib> !dash > barnydan (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:11] <KI4IKL> I know this is a long shot, but is there a way to share speakers between a windows and a linux pc?
[11:11] <jk2> sudo mount -o media/disk-1/uploads /home/FTP-shared/download
[11:11] <HymnToLife> KI4IKL, with a Y-shaped connector ?
[11:11] <fac3less> Split 'em kI
[11:12] <KI4IKL> Yeah...but can you do it with software?
[11:12] <Shankysv87> for some reason, my os will randomly go to a logged out state, however all my programs will continue to run, however when i "sign in" my programs start over but stay going. What is going on?
[11:12] <KI4IKL> I dun wanna have to buy the stuff...my mom wont take me to the store...
[11:12] <barnydan> jrib, I'm not sure but this is just one file that is over 100meg.  Is that the script your refering to?
[11:12] <Shankysv87> how can i fix this?
[11:12] <jrib> barnydan: I don't know, I've never used this thing.  Is it a script?  What does 'file /path/to/your/file' return?
[11:13] <zaggynl> Hi, I installed fail2ban, but it's not banning at all

[11:17] <barnydan> hey wait it is open in vi, but it gave me that error to start with.  If I save it might it be a corrupt file now?

[11:19] <bruno> i've installed windows xp and i can no longer boot into ubuntu
[11:19] <jrib> !grub > bruno (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:19] <agimuno> he has never used ubuntu before, so It would be nice for him to get it to work, so he might get interested in GNU/Linux
[11:19] <Tomasu> are there any 3rd party mirrors for the feisty-commerical repo? the one at canonical is rather slow. :(

[11:20] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[11:22] <SM7X> sorry for that i thought it was just 2 lines :(
[11:22] <neverblue> i updated today, restarted my system, and it will not boot.  I had the following error: 'Starting Up.... [29.016770]  crc error [29.017559]  Kernel panic- not syncing VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown block (0,0)

[11:23] <stefg> bruno: win overwrites the MBR without mercy during install. you have to restore grub to the MBR. read the link ubotu gave you
[11:23] <hjmills> how can I install multiple versions of wine?
[11:23] <neverblue> what is a crc error, and could this be the HD as well?
[11:23] <jrib> meleahbee: I think you can go to tools -> options -> writing aids -> spellechecker -> edit... -> language?
[11:23] <neverblue> hjmills, ask in #wine?
[11:23] <jrib> SM7X: you should upgrade, hoary hasn't been supported for a while
[11:24] <hjmills> neverblue, ok, thanks
[11:24] <neverblue> np
[11:24] <hjmills> neverblue, which irc network is it on?
[11:24] <sldkfj> yeah, it's almost criminal the way windoes is designed to treat the mbr
[11:24] <bruno> stefg: i've restored grub to the mbr but it doesn't work
[11:24] <SM7X> jrib: so its no chance for me to get some packets?
[11:24] <stefg> !doesntwork
[11:24] <ubotu> Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[11:24] <neverblue> this one
[11:24] <barnydan> jrib I changed the header to #! /bin/bash  saved the file and doublechecked it.  I ran it and it ran, but I got the same error at the same place. Please type 'accept' or 'decline': accept

[11:25] <neverblue> no its not :/
[11:25] <neverblue> sorry

[11:25] <jrib> barnydan: then I guess I was wrong.  But to be sure, run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash' and choose bash as your default.  Let's see what happens
[11:26] <codeCowboy> hi. i have mapped a remote server which appears on ubuntu desktop. it does not appear within applications in the file browser dialog though. any ideas how to fix?
[11:26] <barnydan> jrib ok.
[11:26] <bruno> when SGD try to boot into ubuntu the result is error 15 file not found
[11:26] <SM7X> jrib: dont want to bother but... no way to get old packets for it?
[11:26] <meleahbee> jrib:  I looked within writing aids.  I changed the layout to spanish, everything to spanish besides the User Interface, and by default I still get english spell check.  Under english is the multiple spanish dictionaries, but i have to scroll through everytime english picks up a mispelled word
[11:27] <neverblue> ah
[11:27] <neverblue> there you go hjmills
[11:28] <codeCowboy>  if i add a 'place' from the places menu, where does this exist on the filesystem? its not in /mnt or /media.
[11:28] <barnydan> jrib It only lets me install Dash again,  but nothing else.
[11:28] <jrib> SM7X: well security updates aren't guaranteed anyway so you really should upgrade
[11:28] <sebas_> Nutubuntu: which were the opendns' IPs?
[11:28] <sldkfj> a 'place' is added to Places when bookmarking in Nautilus
[11:29] <jrib> meleahbee: specifically, you went to writing aids, then selected the spell checker, clicked "edit" and changed the language there?  And does the language have an "abc" with a checkmark next to it?
[11:29] <jrib> barnydan: it asks you a question, choose "no"
[11:29] <sldkfj> I think it's just a notation of that item being held special by the Places
[11:29] <barnydan> jrib ok I done that, but it dumps me back to the prompt.
[11:29] <jrib> SM7X: you could also try a different mirror, maybe it's just that mirror
[11:30] <jrib> barnydan: yes, does your install still fail?
[11:30] <SM7X> jrib i allready tried 3
[11:30] <barnydan> jrib nope it worked!  Wahoo!
[11:30] <AlexTheGreat> Hello
[11:30] <SM7X> the problem lies somewhere else i guess
[11:30] <Shankysv87> i have a huge problem!
[11:30] <barnydan> jrib you rule!
[11:30] <SM7X> i made an apt-cache update
[11:30] <SM7X> fails
[11:31] <AlexTheGreat> Ok, I just installed xubuntu last night on an old gateway PC
[11:31] <SM7X> apt-get install software fails
[11:31] <AlexTheGreat> and it crashed and when I went to reboot
[11:31] <jrib> barnydan: tell whoever created that file, that they have bashisms and need to call bash specifically
[11:31] <AlexTheGreat> And now it says "Operating System not found" whenever I try to boot
[11:31] <barnydan> jrib ok I'll leave a not on their website.  and see if I can e-mail them.  thanks
[11:31] <jrib> SM7X: well, I would recommend upgrading, or at least trying a live cd to test things out
[11:32] <Bluhd> argh
[11:32] <ladydoor> AlexTheGreat: Do you have access to a LiveCD or somesuch so that you can start that computer and look around on it?
[11:32] <SM7X> jrib: its a server in an RZ no way to get there and use a livecd
[11:32] <SM7X> :((
[11:32] <Allex> does anyone know if its possible to make pidgin display buddy comments?
[11:32] <Bluhd> How do I set a permanent environment variable?
[11:32] <stefg> AlexTheGreat: might be harddisk failure. boot the live cd and check if your installation is still there (seems not)
[11:32] <AlexTheGreat> What if it is still there?
[11:32] <vip3rousmango> AlexTheGreat: Try running a LiveCD copy and see, or you can run ERD Commander BootCD and emulate a windows environment to take a look at things
[11:33] <kishan> Allex, umean notify u when one comes in and out
[11:33] <leonidas> hello all
[11:33] <stefg> AlexTheGreat: tehn reinstall grub
[11:33] <stefg> !grub | AlexTheGreat

[11:33] <AlexTheGreat> Is it a problem that only xubuntu is installed on the PC?
[11:34] <Allex> kishan, nah...i meen: in msn you can write a comment thats not part of your name, its displayed after the name in msn, Asmsn och monkeymessenger
[11:34] <meleahbee> jrib: i got language settings ->writing aids->select hunspell spellchecker and click edit.  I then select spanish(mexico).  It does have an ABC next to it.  But when i go back to that option english again is selected
[11:34] <kitsune> how do I remove the "Show Desktop" button from Kiba Dock?
[11:34] <Allex> kishan, but i cant se them in pidgin
[11:34] <stefg> AlexTheGreat: no, xubuntu is a full fledged OS... nothing else needed :-)
[11:34] <tiop> Anyone know the name of the package for that expanded menu applet Suse ships with nowadays?
[11:34] <neverblue> i updated today, restarted my system, and it will not boot.  I had the following error: 'Starting Up.... [29.016770]  crc error [29.017559]  Kernel panic- not syncing VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown block (0,0)

[11:35] <marcus_> Hello. Is there any reason I could not run gnome and kde switchable on the same computer?
[11:35] <corpuscallosum> anyone know a programme that i can control my cpu speed and fan
[11:35] <jrib> meleahbee: weird, I have to go now so I can't test it out, but I recommend trying in #ubuntu-es as I am sure most there have done what you are trying to do and can probably help you better than I can
[11:35] <sldkfj> Kishan, I dare ya to try this as a search in Google:    remove buttons "Kiba Dock"
[11:36] <maccam94> ugh, i have a really borked mysql server, can someone help me uninstall it?
[11:36] <Allex> kishan, yeah...i have that. not what i meen.
     Kitsune, I dare ya to try this as a search in Google:    remove buttons "Kiba Dock"
[11:36] <tiop> Nevermind, it /was/ gnome-main-menu.
[11:36] <meleahbee> jrib: thank you.  I apologize, it seems i have to deselect all other dictionaries. I cannot simply make one default.
[11:36] <Shankysv87> for different reasons, sometimes will go to a hibranative ish state
[11:36] <mmcji> afternoon
[11:36] <megasquid> anyone know why ubuntu feisty, can't find the rubygems package using apt-get?
[11:36] <Bluhd> How do I set a permanent environment variable? Every time I use export, it's only for that single terminal instance
[11:37] <Shankysv87> my os
[11:37] <kishan> allex go to plugin select libnotify--configure it
[11:37] <mmcji> anyway to clear the arp cache in ubuntu without rebooting my server?
[11:37] <tcv> When I launch Firefox from GNOME, one of my plugins causes Firefox to hang. If I run it from command-line using same command, then it works okay. I am quite confused. What can I look at here?
[11:37] <kitsune> sldkfj: haha...
[11:37] <family> Hey you  guys. having a bit of trouble after upgrading from edgy to fiesty. Bootup hangs at the loading splash screen and gives me some weirdo green lines at the top of the screen
[11:37] <megasquid> anyone know why ubuntu feisty, can't find the rubygems package using apt-get?
[11:37] <tiop> mmcji: arp?
[11:37] <sldkfj> channel alert: 'third party items'  don't get much help here.
[11:38] <ladydoor> Bluhd: try putting it in your .bashrc
[11:38] <Allex> kishan, hmm, how to explain, its something you can write besides your name in msn....and is displeyed next to the name
[11:38] <tiop> ^ Person Message?
[11:38] <tiop> Personal, even.
[11:38] <corpuscallosum> megasquid,  control you sources list
[11:38] <dukedave> Bluhd: Place the export command at the bottom of the ~/.bashrc file
[11:38] <dukedave> Ooh, beaten :)
[11:39] <kishan> oops i got iti can use as status beside avaliable
[11:39] <Bluhd> dukedave: ok
[11:39] <mmcji> from ksh run arp
[11:39] <dukedave> (that gets processed every time a terminal is opened)
[11:39] <wy> It seems ubuntu removed acroread from the repository
[11:39] <megasquid> corpuscallosum:right, how would i know which repository its a part of?
[11:39] <mmcji> you will see what i am talking about
[11:39] <agimuno> how can I boot the livecd and see what the os is initiating, like you can see on many other distros
[11:39] <agimuno> like debian
[11:39] <agimuno> I have forgot
[11:39] <mmcji> i wish to clear this information, but would prefer not to reboot my server
[11:40] <wy> How can I install acroread for ubuntu 7? The one downloaded from adobe will not work.
[11:40] <corpuscallosum> megasquid, sudo wget http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/11289/rubygems-0.9.0.tgz try that
[11:40] <comrade> i have an issue with an ati radeon 9600 usnig the fglrx driver, it seems to crash when I switch from X to a veritual console via alt-tab, has anyone expierenced the same thing or have any work arounds
[11:41] <maccam94> comrade: that sounds familiar, it may be a bug
[11:41] <comrade> maccam94, it happens in ubuntu and arch so I think it is, it's odd though it doesn't affect my laptop which uses radeon m200 express
[11:41] <comrade> maccam94, was just checking to see if anyone had work arounds though
[11:42] <sldkfj> agimuno, enter 'dmesg' in a terminal and see what is logged?
[11:42] <maccam94> comrade: there might be, lemme google it
[11:42] <agimuno> I mean while booting
[11:42] <comrade> maccam94, haha you don't gotta do that, I already tried, and don't expect you to go that far
[11:44] <corpuscallosum> guys i need a programme that controls the cpu speed and fan
[11:44] <premier_> hello, my sound is broken (something with alsa) and i really don't know how to fix it: http://pastebin.ca/559748
[11:44] <atrus> hrm. nm-applet will connect to my wpa2 ap, but it fails to connect to open access points. /var/log/daemon.log suggests it's using wpa-supplicant, but i can't figure out what for
[11:45] <tyler_d> I have an external usb hd that I would like to share... ?
[11:45] <hajhouse> i'm seeking a recommendation for a good introductory/howto book on parser/lexer writing
[11:46] <maccam94> comrade: are you using fglrx or the xorg-ati driver?
[11:46] <KI4IKL> When I use gnome-art to download backgrounds, where does it put the files?
[11:46] <comrade> fglrx
[11:46] <comrade> i think its a bug for sure
[11:46] <maccam94> comrade: yeah, i think i remember that from the days i used gentoo with one of those cards
[11:46] <maccam94> try the xorg driver
[11:46] <comrade> nah its too slow
[11:46] <ladydoor> premier_: Out of curiosity, is the problem just that sound won't play? If so, would you mind pasting the output of the command "groups"?
[11:46] <maccam94> comrade: ooo
[11:46] <damianos_> hi
[11:47] <maccam94> i think i got it
[11:47] <tcv> When I launch Firefox from GNOME, one of my plugins causes Firefox to hang. If I run it from command-line using same command, then it works okay. I am quite confused. What can I look at here?
[11:47] <comrade> thanks though, the xorg is a lot more reliable but its slow as hell compared to fglrx
[11:47] <damianos_> I am looking for some solution to make videoconference with my wife
[11:47] <sn0> tcv run firefox in safe mode, then disable/uninstall/fix the plugin
[11:47] <sldkfj> KI4IKL, using firefox?
[11:47] <KI4IKL> no, the program gnome-art
[11:47] <maccam94> comrade: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-driver-ati/+bug/30447/comments/37
[11:47] <tyler_d> tcv: permissions?
[11:47] <sldkfj> try the tmp folder
[11:47] <premier_> ladydoor: yes, thats the problem in a nutshell... hold on
[11:47] <sn0> add -safe-mode to the end, when starting from the terminal
[11:47] <maccam94> i think that did it for me a while back
[11:47] <KI4IKL> Also, is there a way to get rid of the bars ont he side of my task bars?
[11:47] <premier_> premier adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev lpadmin scanner admin fuse
[11:47] <damianos_> She's got windows and we would like to see and talke via voice chat in one program
[11:48] <damianos_> is it possible in linux ?
[11:48] <premier_> ladydoor: it was working just yesterday
[11:48] <comrade> maccam94, alright I'll give it a try and see what happens
[11:48] <sn0> damianos_ check out wengaphone or ekiga
[11:48] <damianos_> ?
[11:48] <damianos_> sn0:
[11:48] <sldkfj> KI4IKL, those are the hide buttons,  look in preferences
[11:48] <tcv> sn0: But the plug in works when I run the same command from command-line.
[11:48] <ladydoor> premier_: Ah. And you changed the config since then?
[11:48] <KI4IKL> yeah, but there are still bars there after I remove those.
[11:48] <tyler_d> damianos: applications:internet:ekiga
[11:48] <damianos_> wengaphone is able for videoconference
[11:48] <damianos_> ekiga ?
[11:49] <damianos_> tyler_d:
[11:49] <tcv> tyler_d: Are permissions inherently different for applications run from GUI vs. command-line?
[11:49] <sn0> ekiga used to be called gnomemeeting, i used to use it for talking to people with ms netmeeting on windows, but not sure if it supports msn etc
[11:49] <damianos_> tyler_d: are you sure will this work ?
[11:49] <tyler_d> tcv: no, I am refering to how the plugin was installed.... and no
[11:49] <sn0> wengaphone is a seperate app, there is a client for ubuntu and other os too
[11:49] <premier_> ladydoor: well, no.  See, I was changing alsa, and then I got it how I wanted it, then I rebooted and it was fine.  But I rebooted a secound time and it didn't work.
[11:49] <sldkfj> KI4IKL, try xkill ina terminal and the cursor turns to a skull and crossbones,   they click the taskbar with it
[11:49] <tyler_d> damianos_: what do you mean work?
[11:49] <premier_> ladydoor: all I really changed was ~/.asoundrc
[11:49] <sldkfj> they = then
[11:50] <hajhouse> tcv: no they are the same
[11:50] <sldkfj> it will refresh
[11:50] <damianos_> work: I start it and my wife will be able to see me and hear me
[11:50] <ladydoor> premier_: Okay, that's just weird. I'm afraid I don't know in that case.
[11:50] <ladydoor> premier_: Sorry.
[11:50] <damianos_> webcam != videoconference
[11:50] <marcus_> Hello. Is there any reason I could not run gnome and kde switchable on the same computer?
[11:50] <mneptok> marcus_: no
[11:50] <Nutubuntu> marcus_ -  no reason
[11:50] <tyler_d> marcus_: no
[11:50] <sn0> damianos_ check the screenshots http://www.openwengo.com/index.php/openwengo/public/homePage/openwengo/public/projectsNgScreenShots
[11:51] <KI4IKL> sldkfj, that just kills X
[11:51] <KI4IKL> and restarts.
[11:51] <marcus_> Thank you.
[11:51] <KI4IKL> They are moving buttons.
[11:51] <sn0> on ubuntu you can install wengophone from your ubuntu sources, in apt-get/synaptic etc
[11:51] <sldkfj> nope
[11:51] <AlienX__> anyone know of a convenient way to search recursively through various directories in a given directory and gzip everything that contains a string of characters?
[11:51] <sldkfj> try killall gnome-panel ina terminal
[11:51] <AlienX__> err specific string of characters
[11:51] <damianos_> sn0: I will check it
[11:51] <Delirium-NL> How do i unrar *.R01>R02 etc files on ubuntu ?
[11:51] <sn0> hope it helps
[11:51] <tiop> damianos: Not that I've used, but a lot of people seem to like openwengo. There's also Ekiga, early version of Skype for Linux doesn't support video conferencing quite yet.
[11:51] <tyler_d> sn0: nice software, here's a quick one for you, do you know of a free switch for transmitting faxes ??
[11:52] <crimsun> Delirium-NL: unrar e (or rar e)
[11:52] <sldkfj> KI4KL, you do use gnome right?
[11:52] <Delirium-NL> thanks crimsun
[11:52] <tyler_d> sn0: ie. not over my phone line
[11:52] <tiop> Is there even a Windows port of Ekiga?
[11:52] <sn0> tyler_d to do what exactlly?
[11:52] <damianos_> tiop: Excuse me that i ask again
[11:52] <sn0> tiop i dont believe so, ekiga used to be for compatibility with netmeeting which is no more
[11:53] <tyler_d> sn0: to send a fax over the internet (free) and have it recieved on the other end
[11:53] <damianos_> is ekiga eble to make videoconference (voicie and video in one time)
[11:53] <tiop> damianos: Was actually scrolled up and didn't notice someone else had already replied, my bed. :P
[11:53] <damianos_> ?
[11:53] <sn0> tyler_d have you tried efax-gtk ?
[11:53] <comrade> maccam94, still crashes :/, damn ati and their lame drivers
[11:53] <KI4IKL> Okay, another question...is there a way to make windows go over taskbars?
[11:53] <tiop> It can but there isn't a Windows client.
[11:53] <tyler_d> sn0: yes
[11:53] <damianos_> I am askig because I ma useing kde in laptop so I need to download many libs form gnome :)
[11:53] <tyler_d> sn0: and gfax is glitchy
[11:54] <tiop> There's actually a beta version for the Windows port. :o
[11:54] <tyler_d> sn0: and kfax is a pain, wants every fax to be printed to a psp
[11:54] <sldkfj> not that I know of, I could be wrong though
[11:54] <sn0> damianos_ wengaphone uses qt libraries, what kde uses
[11:54] <sldkfj> KI4KL, you do use gnome ?
[11:54] <hatter> sn0, hylafax can send and receive faxes
[11:54] <damianos_> sn0: Ok thank you I will try wengaphone :)
[11:55] <tyler_d> hatter: hylafax is a server based fax program....
[11:55] <hatter> sn0, actually, hylafax is receives, but the website has quite a few clients
[11:55] <tyler_d> hatter: and it doesn't support internal modems... ie /dev/modem
[11:55] <sn0> tyler_d there you go hatter kindly mentioned another app
[11:55] <sn0> must admit i haven't done much faxing
[11:55] <sn0> damianos_ your welcome
[11:55] <tyler_d> sn0: tried that one....
[11:55] <hatter> tyler_d, internal modems ?  you mean winmodems ?
[11:56] <tyler_d> hatter: yes
[11:56] <sldkfj> KI4IKL, you do use gnome ?
[11:56] <agimuno> can someone help me find out how to see the boot text while booting from a live-cd, isn't there a button or a button combination to be pressed?
[11:56] <hatter> tyler_d, they work on linux ?
[11:56] <tyler_d> hatter: yes they do
[11:56] <agimuno> please
[11:56] <KI4IKL> Yeah, sldkfj
[11:56] <tyler_d> hatter: bit of a pain to get there, but the point is I don't want to have to use a modem.... want it over the net right :)
[11:56] <damianos_> sn0: there is no any info about wengaphone in google - strange
[11:57] <hatter> over the net ?  you need a provider then
[11:57] <SM7X> thx for support have to leave
[11:57] <SM7X> bye
[11:57] <hatter> email to fax gateway
[11:57] <sn0> wengophone damianos_
[11:57] <Delirium-NL> Anyone know how to fix viewing WMV file's on ubuntu? It works on my pc but the video's quality is fairly poor compared to windows.
[11:57] <tyler_d> hatter: looking for a free one... and yes
[11:57] <damianos_> sn0: ooo I see :)
[11:57] <hatter> well if you find a free one let us all know :)
[11:57] <tyler_d> hatter: lmfao
[11:58] <tyler_d> hatter: might just buy a whole bunch of winmodems and set them up on a server.... that would be cool
[11:58] <heroin>  Delirium-NL woon je in haarlem bij toeval?
[11:58] <tyler_d> hatter: then I will let you know
[11:58] <sldkfj> KI4KL, then that previous answer of mine should be restated as no  (having app windows cover the taskbar)
[11:58] <hatter> tyler_d, then you have to pay for the phone calls :)
[11:58] <damianos_> sn0: Do you have an account in wengophone /
[11:58] <tyler_d> hatter: I would think there should be a free one out there, seeing as how they are into voip and such
[11:58] <damianos_> ?
[11:58] <KI4IKL> sldkfj, yes, I use gnome.
[11:58] <heroin> Delirium-NL: which video player are u using and are u sure of the qaulity?
[11:59] <tyler_d> hatter: its just a transmit switcher.
[11:59] <Delirium-NL> @heroin, groningen =p
[11:59] <sn0> damianos_ i do
[11:59] <Delirium-NL> @heroin, yep the quality is fine but i see glitches in the video
[11:59] <heroin> Delirium-NL: ah ok because there is a club named delerium in haarlem :) but yah which video player are u using?
[11:59] <tyler_d> sharing an external drive over the network from the root, or a workaround?
[11:59] <KI4IKL> Does anyone know a way to make the taskbars sorta ghost and let windows go over them?
[11:59] <sldkfj> KI4IKL, that's what I use also
[11:59] <Delirium-NL> standard gnome " Movie Player "
[11:59] <Delirium-NL> works fine on avi etc
[12:00] <tyler_d> KI4IKL: define ghost?
[12:00] <heroin> KI4IKL: u mean that the taskbar is transparent?
[12:00] <tcv> Here's what's odd about my issue: When I launch firefox from the GUI, the plug-in works fine twice, but the third time is when it fails. And, again, if I run it as my user from cli, it works fine. I am testing with one page.
[12:00] <KI4IKL> no, I mean like where windows can go over them.
[12:00] <KI4IKL> They are behind windows.
[12:00] <heroin> Delirium-NL: movie player = totem.. urm.. if u have the disk space try VLC or mplayer and see if its totem related
